Hi guys,
As you probably guess from the title, I've recently read The perks of being a wallflower (this title is amazingly long). I've actually read it in English, and you all know that it's not my first language. I was expected it to be be much more complicated, but it wasn't.
From the beginning. I've seen the movie a couple of months ago, and dear god it was such a great movie. First of all I've liked the actors. I mean, let's face it, Logan Lerman, Ezra Miller and Emma Watson are amazing. And they're not only amazing alone, actually they're even better together. I mean in the movie you can feel pretty much everything they want you to when they act together.
Anyway, the fact that the movie was so great make me wanted to read the book. But I had so many books to read at this time that I just forgot.
But then last week I was at FNAC (don't even know if it's only a french or European company. But for those who don't know they're selling books, computers, Cd's, movies etc.). So yeah, I was there with my father, and we stopped in front of the "English literature" section cause I wanted to find Into the wild in English (which I didn't and got it in French) and I've just found The perks laying here. It was pretty cheap so I just bought it. And the thing I love about it, is that it has the original cover, or at least I think it is. I don't quiet know If it's the same in other countries cause I haven't traveled a lot, but here in France when a movie came out from a book, they replace the book cover with the movie poster which makes me so mad. But that's not the point.
I've read it in four days, cause I've been distracted, I think I could have finished it in a day.
The way Stephen Chbosky write is amazing to me. It feels like you could have write it, but not really. You just feel exactly how Charlie feels. And you feel sad and confused when he is. I think that's the whole thing with this book, you definitely feel connected with the main character.
In the movie, the scene that probably choked me the most was the fight kinda scene when Charlie save Patrick. I was definitely crying and was so proud he did that.
But in the book I think that it's the end that struck me the most. Of course it did in the movie, and for those who have read it you know why, but I feel like in the book you can understand better the fact.
After reading the book, all I can think about is if there is really people on earth that are as kind as Charlie is. And if it exist, I definitely want to meet them. I highly recommend this book, to every person who's gonna read this, no matter how old you are. Cause with this book, "we feel infinite".
