The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a book by Stephan Chbosky. This book is 213 pages long, including the epilogue. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a teen-lit novel about a boy, Charlie, in his first year of high school. When the book begins, Charlie tries to be anonymous to the reader as possible; but as time goes on, he cannot help but let the reader become gradually more involved with his life.
Charlie begins high school extremly shy, awkward, and with very little friends. One night at a football game he meets Sam and Patrick, these two are brother and sister. As time goes on Sam and Patrick somewhat guide Charlie through a transformation, and show him what it is really like to be a teenager. To find out what the transformation and realization Charlie comes to, you must read the book!
I would recommend this book to anyone above the age of 15. It can be a bit graphic at times, and a higher maturity, tolerance level would be recommend to gain the full effect from the book. This book caontains drug, alcohol, and sexual material. All in all this is an A+ book.
This sounds interesting. Did you find it in the library?
ReplyDeleteThis book sounds fun, entertaining, and gripping. Is it available in the school library? I wold like to read it sometime. A similar book to this is "Shattering Glass" by Gail Giles; also a good book.
ReplyDeleteThis book is not found in the school libary, and highly doubt it would be found in the Belle Fourche pubic libary, but i know Borders has it, or maybe try the Spearfish Libary, or the inter-libary loan program.
