The Perks of Being a Wallflower
If you haven't read it, you should. It's good. I wish I knew how to better explain why a book is good, but it's just...I feel like portrays little things in life ways that you might not have thought of. There are a lot of good quotes in Charlie's narration because of who his character is and how he sees life. Like these:
"The fact that one of these ladies was my mom made me particularly sad because my mom is beautiful. And she’s always on a diet. Sometimes, my dad calls her beautiful, but she cannot hear him."
"Sam tapped her hand on the steering wheel. Patrick held his hand outside the car and made air waves. And I just sat between them. After the song finished, I said something. 'I feel infinite.'"
"Sam and Patrick looked at me. And I looked at them. And I think they knew. Not anything specific really. They just knew. And I think that's all you can ever ask from a friend."
"And I thought that all those little kids are going to grow up someday. And all of those little kids are going to do the things that we do. And they will all kiss someone someday. But for now, sledding is enough. I think it would be great if sledding were always enough, but it isn't."
So there, that's a fictional book.
