I am currently reading The Perks of Being a Wallflower. I just started it last night so I have only read about 15 pages. I chose to read this book because Charlie has a lot of depression, anxiety, and he's socially awkward. I can relate to him. A lot of my friends have said that it is a very good book also. So far, I like it. In the future, I think Charlie is going to come out of his shell and make a lot of friends and not be so awkward around people. I wonder why he writes letters everyday. He writes about everyday and always starts, "Dear friend,". I wonder if that will change throughout the book. I hope to finish this book in the next week or so. It is already very interesting. :)

I predict that throughout this book Charlie will find a group of friends that accept him and he will not be as depressed as before. I also wonder if he will relapse and have suicidal thoughts again. He seems like he would be a fun guy to be around. I picture him being a small and thin guy that isn't very popular in school. I also picture him having blonde hair and very blue eyes. I imagine him having very long and pretty eyelashes also.

Has anybody else read this book? If so, what did you think about it?
I read The Fault in Our Stars over the summer. I enjoyed this book alot. My favorite part was when Hazel and Gus went to Amsterdam to meet their favorite author. It showed their dedication to that author. My least favorite part was when that author was mkaing fun of them for having a terminal illness. They can't help that they have cancer. Hazel is a very sweet down to earth girl. She keeps to herself because she feels like people only talk to her and are nice to her because she has cancer. If I were her, I would feel the same way. Gus is very outgoing. He doesn't care what others think of him. He's always very positive too. He cares a lot about Hazel and would do anything for her. When she fell ill, he was at the hospital the whole time even though she didn't want him to see her like that.
