the perks of being a wallflower

Dear Charlie,

GROW A PAIR OF BALLS!!!!!! I mean come on, your dream girl wants you and you say no?! Why in the world would even think that could in any way be a good idea? Sure she said be yourself, but that doesn't mean you shut the world out, she meant stop putting everybody else in front what you want. I guess what I want you to do is to stop hiding behind your own insecurities, get out and live! say to hell with the world and everyone else in it! Go for what you want and give nothing back. Loose the barriers, forget the old you, and most importantly, and I mean MOST IMPORTANT FOR ANYBODY........live your life to the fullest!

"Today is your last day, are you happy to die?"

Sincerely,

David

Okay now that i have internet agian. I can try doing this once more.

a place so foreign was a very interesting book. It didn't really grab my attention but was a lot easier to follow then Olive K. So I did enjoy this one more. For the content of the story, well I was not able to get too involved in the story or the characters, it was like the author did not want me to understand why James was making those disisions. I dont know maybe I'm just crazy but i did feel the characters were very in depth. But thats what i felt, anybody else?

The suffering

I'm sure there are some people who enjoy this book, I don't believe that it won a Pulitzer Prize just because Oprah recomends it. However this book is the closest thing to torture I can think of. The disconnected stories, overflow of characters to follow and then inside the small stories we jump from present to past and back so fast I cannot follow. For the most part this is not a book I would recommend, unless somebody really needed to see how good of a life they have. As for anything else I find this too unbearable to follow and have an extremely hard time to continue reading. Kevin was my hope, he had the chance to turn the story into a murder twist, yet he saved or tried to save the woman from drowing. Again this book is not something I would read on my own time, its complex set of characters and hard to follow timeline leave me hopeless for the ending.
