Book review: The Perks Of Being A Wallflower

The Perks Of Being A WallflowerThe Perks Of Being A Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Told as a set of letters from Charlie to an unknown person, this is a coming-of-age story from a boy that just doesn't fit in. He is socially awkward and has no friends since his best friend committed suicide. Then he meets Susan and Patrick who instantly like him for who he is, and become strong friends and allies.
I found the style of this book probably the biggest barrier as Charlie does get tiresome. Although I mostly enjoyed the novel, I found it very slow and I never really had an urge to pick the story back up again.
