love always, charlie.



Is it possible to be in love with a book? yes? okay, so, i'm in love with a book. i said it. it's out. i have kind of been at a stale-mate with books, never quite connecting like i used to which was strange for me, and finally i have fell head over heels with this magnificent beauty of a Trade Me buy.

The Perks of Being A Wallflower.

I can relate SO, SO so much to Charlie. I think a lot of people can, which is why the book is so popular. I just read a part of the book that I feel like it was written by me, or for me. I have felt that way so many times. What a beautiful novel. My love for a good novel has come back, thanks Stephen Chbosky! I owe ya.

'Then, Patrick pointed at me and said something to Bob.
"He's something, isn't he?"
Bob nodded his head. Patrick then said something I don't think I'll ever forget.
"He's a wallflower."
And Bob really nodded his head. And the whole room nodded their head. And I started to feel nervous in the Bob way, but Patrick didn't let me get too nervous. He sat down next to me.
"You see things. You keep quiet about them. And you understand."
I didn't know that other people thought things about me. I didn't know they looked.'
- The Perks of Being a Wallflower, pg. 38.
