The perks of being a wallflower Cover Image Book

The perks of being a wallflower / Stephen Chbosky.

Chbosky, Stephen, (author).

Summary:

Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. He's a wallflower-- shy and introspective, and intelligent beyond his years, if not very savvy in the social arts. We learn about Charlie through the letters he writes: trying to make friends, family tensions, exploring sexuality, experimenting with drugs-- and dealing with his best friend's recent suicide.
