The Perks of Being a Wallflower is beautiful picture of first dates, family drama, and new friends mixed with sex, drugs, and horror pictures.

“A number one New York Times bestseller will make you laugh, cry and perhaps make you feel nostalgic for those times when you, too, danced on the dance floor of life.”

The Book Guide® Editor

A devastating loss, young love, a life on the fringes, and a lot of heartache. Charlie must learn to navigate the wild and poignant roller coaster days known as growing up, which are often accompanied by heartbreak and pain.
