The Perks of Being a Wallflower

Charlie is the youngest of three children. He lives in the shadow of his athlete older brother and his activist older sister. While trying to fit in at school, he befriends a pair of older siblings and soon becomes part of their group. He lucks out too, because before this he didn't really have any friends, and he struggled with the grief of having his close friend commit suicide. These new friends completely take him in, and help him grow and become more comfortable with himself. Have you ever felt like no one in the world understood you? And then out on a whim, you make a connection with someone who completely knows you inside and out? And then, you get a crush on her? Life is hard for Charlie, but somehow, he tries to pull through, by making mistakes, and trying his best to recover from them. For Charlie, the course of one school year completely changes his life, and he will never be the same again. Can you imagine becoming an entirely different person in nine short months?
