What does Charlie look like

As I was read this book I had a picture of Charlie in my head. In my head , he was a medium height , awkward , cute kid. Attached is a picture of what I think the author wanted him to look like.

News article

This book reminded me off the news a while back about boys being molested. The link is attached http://www.wptv.com/dpp/news/national/boy-scouts-of-america-molestation-sex-scandal-files-eight-palm-beach-county-men-on-blacklist

Mixed emotion

I'm not so sure if I like this book. It seemed too fast for me. I didn't really understand much of it. But then again it wasn't a terrible book because it wasn't so boring.

Finished

I just finished perks of being a wallflower. I'm actually really confused. I had to re read the end multiple times but I got it! Aunt Helen wasn't a saint... She molested him! I wasn't expecting any of that

Outcast Charlie

Ever since the party, it seems that Charlie is an outcast and he now examines everything about life. He has been avoiding people and that's scary because that's what people that have suicidal thoughts do

Charlie and his sister

At the begging of the book I didn't think Charlie and his sister got along to well. But now as the book progresses they seem closer than ever. Charlie was nice enough to be there for her sister when she found out she was pregnant. That's one good brother.

Charlie doesn't seem so smart

Charlie may be intelligent , but he does before he thinks. At this party he was dared to kiss the prettiest girl in the room. His girlfriend was right beside him and he chooses to kiss another girl. That's terrible. Why would someone do that??

Aunt Helen

As the book progresses I start to see how much Aunt Helen means to Charlie. I feel bad for him. I haven't had a really close person to my heart pass away and I can't imagine what's it would be like for him. Especially because he was so young when it happened. It seems like Charlie was like Aunt Helen's side kick. He was always there for her and she was always there for him and they were related but at the same time bestfriends. His relation ship is like mine with my grandmother. We are really close and I can't go a day without talking to her for atleast 10 minutes straight.

Charlie

Now I am starting to learn more about Charlie an he really does cry alot , and it's weird. Him and his aunt Helen were really close and it turns out she died In a car wreck. I always wondered why Charlie would get so upset talking about his grandmother but I guess it's because it happened on his birthday. Yep! She died on his birthday. You know what's even more weird? The last thing she said before she left was I'm gonna go get your present Charlie. That's terrible , I can't imagine how Charlie feels. Him and his family aren't very close. Aunt Helen was the only person I'm his family that was close to his heart. His brother and sister fight alot, his mom is mostly quiet, and his dad is just a father figure in the house but is also emotional like Charlie. So far I like the book. I still don't know who he's writing to , maybe the author made it so he is writing letters to the reader. I'm not sure.

Perks of being a Wallflower

Today I started the book "Perks of being a wallflower" by Stephen Chbosky. The book so far is all letters to someone I don't know. The writer doesn't use real names but he said that his name is Charlie . One of his closest friends killed himself when he was younger. Charlie seems like a quite and emotional person. Every sad situation he's in , he crys. There is nothing wrong with crying but he crys ALOT.

Round of applause for Ned Vizzini

 Clap. Clap. Clap. This book was amazing. I didnt think the book would be so good from the start but the closing chapter made this book great. This book opens my eyes and makes me look at life in a deffiernt , positive prospective. Wow , this book is great . Im going to tell some people to read this becasue i    really do think it is a very informational book. Also it seems as if it is giving hope for people that struggle from depresion. I might even read this book again. To close this blog up i will leave with a quote ,



"Life's not about feeling better, it's about getting the job done.”

entreging

as this book goes on i start to enjoy it more. This book is written and narrated with such realism. Me , as a teenager can definitly relate to the main characters problem. Depresssion , self harm , school stree , parent stress , and friend stress is all so real. This is book is just a great read because i can reallt relate. I think all teenagers my age should read this book

Noelle and Craig sitting in a tree

They are deffinitly dating now , no doubt about it ! After they both get out they are going to go on their first date. Craig doesnt care much for his bestfriends girlfriend anymore. Hes in love ! With Noelle . This is too cute.

Artistic Craig?

IT turns out that craig is VERY artistic. Who would have known ? it seems like all the pain he is feeling is pushed aside when he has art in front of him. Thats great. Everyone needs something that they can do to  feel better about themselves , their lives , their health , their stress etc. Music is my "get away" from the world and Art is his. I think Craig is getting better then how he was back a couple days ago.

Noelle part 2 ?

It looks like something is sparking between Noelle and Craig . They seem closer and that they deffinitly want to be with each other . Wow . I was right ! They are starting to show interest in each other. Maybe they will help each other heal and get out of the mental hospital . Lets hope ! I want them to be happy

School

Craig has been gone for a bit in school and people are starting to get suspisious . I would be too ! if my friend just didnt come to school i would wonder where they are. So crfaig has missed some school but doesnt want to tell anyone where he has been becausde he thinks its an embarrasement

Noelle

There is this girl that has caught Craigs attention, Noelle. He barely knows her but is already developing feelings for her. She must be really pretty. But they start talking more farther into the book, and she seems to have an interest in him as well as he does to her. Hopefully he gets the guts to ask her out ! They would be cute. I also fiqure out that Noelle used to cut herself. Self harm is a big problem. I know many people who have\ are suffering from self harm. It makes me sad to think that one of the main characters in this book self harms. Thats why she is in the mental hospital , because of her self harming issues.

Bobby

While Craig is in the mental hospital he starts to get closer and closer to a guy named Bobby. He is a little older than craig and seems to be a bit wiser but maybe not as mature. Craig doesnt know exactly why bobby is in the mental hospital quite yet. I wonder why Bobby wont tell Craig. Maybe Bobby is a quiet person and wants to keep his things to himself. Im not like that , i will share almost anything with a stranger becasue i dont care if people know my business. Bobby seems like the complete opposite of me.

Hes stressed

Craig is obviously very stressed out about many things . Friends , family , school . But most teenagers are. But hes not strong enough to handle all of it . He tried to KILL himself. Thats really low. No wonder why he was conserned for himself , i would be too ! The book is starting off very well and Craig is now becoming very developed.

To start off

I am reading the book its kind of a funny story. This book starts off with a teenage boy worried about his health and sort of checks himself in a mental hospital, Craig. Crazy right ? he must feel terrible about himself to do that. So far I know that he is a very honest person and kind of a shy person.
