i had always heard people say how great the movie was so, i wanted to give the book a try. i had to reread it halfway in because it felt slow at first, once i decided to annotate it and pay extra attention to the writing style, the book was magnificent. the style of writing is still difficult for me to get into but overall charlie's coming of age story was enlightening and made me emotional at parts.
