I've read the book and as I've told I wasn't hooked enough that I couldn't wait for its film adaptation but now I think the movie is cool after seeing the trailer. I found the book dreary, plot hasn't established well. Charlie whose English teacher deduces that he's a smart fifteen year-old boy but frustratingly Charlie occurs like an innocent baby who has no single idea about masturbation, sex, all that stuff. He loves books, that's the only fact I like about him aside from he's a good thoughtful friend. Mentally or perhaps emotionally challenged. I am a wallflower myself but I hadn't experienced cutting my locks unconsciously till I'd gone pathetically bald, neither been sent to mental hospital of some sort. But hey, the movie seems nice. I didn't expect Charlie is as gorgeous as Logan Lerman and Sam is as pretty as Hermione. You know the feeling that you have had certain awful make up pictures of the characters and events happened in the novel on your head and abruptly after watching the trailer you found yourself saying, "I didn't expect it could be this cool." The movie can make you feel eight years younger--wild, spirited, hopeful, cheerful, enthusiastic, infinite. Check out.

“And all the books you've read have been read by other people. And all the songs you've loved have been heard by other people. And that girl that's pretty to you is pretty to other people. and that if you looked at these facts when you were happy, you would feel great because you are describing 'unity.”― Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

Hi. I just read your previous posts and I think we have same taste in books. My favorite authors are Sidney Sheldon and Mitch Albom which is why I was fascinated reading your comments about their books. Keep blogging. :)
