From the back cover:
"Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. Shy, introspective, intelligent beyond his years yet socially awkward, he is a wallflower, caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it. Charlie is attempting to navigate his way through uncharted territory: the world of first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends; the world of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite. But Charlie can't stay on the sideline forever. Standing on the fringes of life offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks like from the dance floor."

I had heard so many good things about The Perks of Being a Wallflower so when I saw this in a bookstore I just had to buy this. This wasn't supposed to be read in a long while, but then I found this from a fellow bookcrosser's wishlist, so I'll be sending this as a birthday gift. I finished reading this awesome book last night and I'm in love. It was really easy to relate to Charlie and his life and I just couldn't stop reading. I'll definitely buy a copy of my own some day.

I don't usually ask this, but now I have to. My wish is that this book wouldn't stay in anyone's permanent shelf and please no wild releasing. I think that this is so great book that many want to keep this with them always and I really want that there will be at least this copy that will keep moving and giving people an amazing reading experience. I'd like to keep this to myself, but more than that, I want other people to have a chance to read this. That's why I'll buy myself another copy some day.

Going as a birthday gift. =)

Thank you for this wonderful birthday present! It will be read, and travel somewhere after that. Don't worry! :)

Kiitos! Terveisiä Portugalista! ;)

I ended up with a second copy of this book, so I'll make it travel straight away to The Netherlands, as I found out it was on Tsjara's wishlist.
Enjoy!

Warm greetings from Portugal :)

Enjoy! :)

A "mysterious" package arrived and really brightened my day. Thank you very much Arvores for the trade (and the lovely note you included)! This is one of my older wishes and I've been wanting to read it for a long time.. really looking forward to it. :)

(Hi slipperbunny, thanks for sharing the book! I'll keep it moving ^_^)

Yikes, has this been sitting on my shelf for that long?! Well, I finally managed to get round to reading it and I enjoyed it a lot.
I didn't expect that this book would be written as a series of letters (or maybe it's more like a diary), but it works really well, and I wonder who this friend is that Charlie is writing to. I could relate to Charlie quite often, remembering how it was to be a teenager, and I guess I like to observe people as well...


Will try to find a new reader for it soon!

On its way to joana. Hope you will enjoy it!

Thank you so much for this book! I am going away for the long weekend and will take the book with me.
