5.0

One of my all time favorite books. Have read this at different stages of my life from pre-teen to teen to young adult and it always has such an impact. I’ve had different views everytime I’ve read it. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is emotional, funny, deep, and a short read. It’s captivating and so easy to read and follow this flawed, messy, but loveable cast of characters.
