Perks of Being a Wallflower - Stephen Chbosky (COMPLETE)

This book only took me two days to complete. As soon as I began reading, I was hooked! It is written so realistically and intriguingly, it is impossible for anyone, and I mean anyone (with some exceptions) to put this book down until it is finished.
It has such a beautiful, emotional and relatable story. The characters are lovable, relatable and all-together characters you could imagine being real people in the real world.
I enjoyed this book very much, and I also really enjoyed the movie. The movie has less swearing, sex-talk and nudity however (just a warning). Due to this book being about American teenagers in the early 90s, there is quite a large amount of sex, drugs, and all that good stuff.
The protagonist, Charlie, I found to be slightly more likable in the movie because he was less inclined to smoke - in the book, it is something he does all the time.
I love these characters, and they all have warm personalities. The story is great and I enjoyed the different way it was written - in letter form - it was unique and I liked it muchly :)
4/5 for this one folks! :D
