THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER Stephen Chbosky1. I really enjoyed reading the book. I liked the way it was written pretty much. Charlie's letters are as intimate as a diary as he shares his day-to-day thoughts and feelings. You can somehow really get to know the narrator - Charlie - and you feel like he is writing all these letters to you. That is very interesting. Yet there are somewhat unrealistic tones, which I noticed some time after reading the book, because my first impression was how incredibly realistic it was. Charlie is only portrayed as the nice, innocent teenager. He does some things wrong, but in the end is near perfect. Even though he is screwed up, your compassion for Charlie is overwhelming, and you seem to forget that the book does not seem that real. Besides, in my opinion some of the letters are too "bookish". However I still think the book is insightful, true and pretty sad. 2. The language was colloquial and very easy to understand.3. There are lots of impressing parts, but the one I liked most is when Charlie is telling a poem at a Christmas party to all his friends. I loved the poem because it is that sad but, however, true, I think. It is about growing up and how things change whe
By the time Charlie realises how he did Mary-Elizabeth wrong and endangered the friendship of Sam and her. The ending really took me by surprise. Charlie begins the year at high school as a friendless observer, but soon is friends with Sam and Patrick. Charlie: Charlie is the third child in a middle-class family. He proves a loyal friend to his gay friend Patrick, and a helping brother when his sister needs an abortion. Sam is an 18-year-old girl who had to face a lot of problems the last years in college. Charlie, a 15-year-old freshman, is writing letters who cover his first year in high school to an unknown person. Charlie encounters the same struggles that many kids have to face in high school - how to make friends, family tensions, a first relationship, experimenting with drugs - but he also has to deal with his best friend's recent suicide. Later on Charlie finds out the poem was written by a boy just before he killed himself. n you are not anymore the lovely little child but have become a young adult. In my opinion it is written in a very sad, nevertheless nice way. She really likes Charlie a lot, but when he tells her at the beginning of their friendship that he loves her, she just wants to be friends. Nevertheless, he makes it back in due time, ready to face his sophomore year and all it may bring. He starts to see how much his friends really mean to him and how much he needs them. Charlie is a thinker, but he thinks too much, which sometimes leads to confusion and anxiety.
