I'm currently reading...

'The Perks of Being a Wallflower', by Stephen Chbosky.

'Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. Shy, introspective, intelligent beyond his years yet socially awkward, he is a wallflower, caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it. Charlie is attempting to navigate his way through uncharted territory: the world of first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends; the world of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite. But Charlie can't stay on the sideline forever. Standing on the fringes of life offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks like from the dance floor. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a deeply affecting coming-of-age story that will spirit you back to those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.'

'The Perks of Being a Wallflower', by Stephen Chbosky was recommended to me by my younger sister who is a massive fan of the book and urged me to read it. She went on to say that she loves the author's style of writing and that "I won't believe the twist at the end!". Naturally, I was instantly intrigued by this reaction, as my sister is not one to mince her words and is very straight to the point. I shall let you know how I get on in the coming weeks..
