The Perks of Being a Wallflower

De: Stephen Chbosky

Narrado por: Noah Galvin

“A timeless story for every young person who needs to understand that they are not alone.” —Judy Blume

“Once in a while, a novel comes along that becomes a generational touchstone. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is one of those books.” —R. J. Palacio, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Wonder

This #1 New York Times bestselling coming-of-age story with millions of copies in print takes a sometimes heartbreaking, often hysterical, and always honest look at high school in all its glory.

The critically acclaimed debut novel from Stephen Chbosky follows observant “wallflower” Charlie as he charts a course through the strange world between adolescence and adulthood. First dates, family drama, and new friends. Sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Devastating loss, young love, and life on the fringes. Caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it, Charlie must learn to navigate those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.

A #1 New York Times bestseller for more than a year, adapted into a major motion picture starring Logan Lerman and Emma Watson (and written and directed by the author), and an American Library Association Best Book for Young Adults (2000) and Best Book for Reluctant Readers (2000), this novel for teen readers (or wallflowers of more-advanced age) will make you laugh, cry, and perhaps feel nostalgic for those moments when you, too, tiptoed onto the dance floor of life.

Nostalgia

I read this book back in high school in Senior year. All I could remember is that it was book that really connected to me.

It made me feel like I can belong

As a young teen reading this book for the first time I wish that I read it sooner. This book made me feel like everything I’m going through is normal and while it may feel horrible at times I can make it through, and I love books were I can see how other people think which may sound strange but it really takes me away and gets me reading, and with this book I felt like I was the one receiving these letters and like I was needed and like I helped him through this as well. I believe I found MY new favorite book. :)

Very relatable.

This book is very relatable. The characters could be anyone or everyone. It is emotional at times, but it has all the emotions. Definitely recommend it.

Excellent

This story shattered me! It healed me. It breathed new life into me. This was just what I needed. I cried at the end and felt myself exhale.
Such a beautifully written story grounded in reality and truth.

An awesome story!

Wow! I couldn't stop listening! Loved it! it was thought provoking and moving. The performance was flawless!

This book really connected with me.

I'm a HighSchooler and when I listened to this book, it connected with me on a level that no other book has. I truly enjoyed this book, and I would recommend it to anyone my age. I stayed up until at least 1200 in the morning listening to this book, non-stop.
Truly an amazing book.
