WIJFR Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky *possible spoilers*

I LOVED this book, it was so sad and beautiful. I really liked how it was written, it definitely worked for the character.

I really related to Charlie, I have also stayed in the hospital due to a breakdown. I remember being checked in, having to take out the drawstring from my sweatshirt, D bringing me a bag of clothes and the snow leopard stuffed animal he got for me from the Woodland Park Zoo. And then when D had to leave, I remember sitting on the bed and realizing how alone I was. Like Charlie, it was such a big help having family and friends being so supportive.

I found out that the author was also the director and producer of the movie, it was great that it followed the book very closely, but wasn't exactly the same.
