Shamefully I saw the movie before I read this book, but, this book is wonderful! it's deep and emotional but also teaches you to take a step back and appreciate what you have in life and what truly makes you happy. it's a great coming of age story that is true to the human experience.

There are alot of heavy topics but I feel they are carried out with grace and the author does a good job easing you into it instead of just springing it onto the reader.

A beautiful but emotional read. Deals with heavy topics, but hearing Charlie’s thoughts and experience coming to understand some difficult things about himself and his past is so well done.
