I'm fully convinced that if I could rate this book any higher, I would. This book ruined me. I've never read any book as fast as I've read this in my life. Our main character Charlie is the sweetest boy in all of existence. He's so wonderfully written that you feel motherly towards him, and yet relate to him all at the same time. Not to mention, he has the music taste of a guardian angel with a heart of gold. I'll probably read this again. It has a feeling to it like no other. A disturbing contemporary for sure, but worthy of the modern classic distinction.

Expected it to be a little melodramatic and trite, as I used to find the film, but despite how often he cries, it really isn’t. It was honestly a really evocative novel that deserves its hype.

This is such a good book, wow. I read it after watching the movie so I can’t say I experienced all the shocks, but I loved it nonetheless. The mental health representation and the general messages are so well-presented and important and I think everyone should read this. Part of me wishes it was longer, but I think it was perfect honestly. I also really loved the writing style! Very creative.
