A review by vidyaareads
The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
4.0
As you all know and as many readers and reviewers compared it to the The Catcher in the Rye, yes this book definitely resembles that. Its obviously like reading a teenager's diary. And who wouldn't like to read a diary of personal things?
The "growing-up" years in everyone's life are very important and precious. I guess I relate to this book a lot. My friends used to say I look "moody" all the time(just like Charlie is) and I know now that I used to be in one place and day dream of being in another place. So, its like body-present, mind-absent like thing.
This book also makes me want to have a pen-friend to whom I can write long letters or short letters describing my life in details. It would be awesome!
I recommend this to people who just wants to have a read and dont take it too serious. Its like an evening snack, a quick read.
Charlie has a great sense for Music and Mix-tapes. Also, there a lot of interesting books mentioned in THIS book. I added all this books to my to-read list. I'm looking forward to read them.
One thing, I don't like in this book is Charlie always cries for many stupid reasons. He cries for every other 2 pages. I just cant imagine a 15-16year old western kid crying for such reasons even if he is like Charlie. I think I saw too many western movies that I cannot imagine or cannot stand them to be like that.
So, that's it. I'd give a 3.5/5 rating to this. :)
