If you have ever known someone, or been someone, who says all the wrong things to all of the wrong people, but with all of the right feelings in your heart, than you can relate to this book.  You are a Charlie.  If you've ever known someone, or been someone, who longs to be noticed and maybe loved by the right person for the right reasons, but often find yourself on the wrong side of their affection, you are probably a Charlie.        I never really read any …

This book was really fun! I liked to look at a guy like him and see who he was...it's so interesting. This is the kind of book you like to pretend isn't fiction.

Makes you think about what being a 'wallflower' means and makes you see how it really isn't a negative thing. I always considered myself to be a 'wallflower' and this made me come to see it as a good thing.

hands down the best book I've ever read
Quick Tip by . June 16, 2010
This is a modern-day coming of age story that is similar to Catcher in the Rye. It's wonderful. This is a book I've read so many times. You don't wanna miss it!

I haven't read it in years, but I would recommend this book to any teenager. I know it's a cliche for my generation, and in some ways it is overrated, but it's one of a handful of books that totally changed my life.
