Overview

<i>The Perks of Being a Wallflower</i> 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. Now a major motion picture starring <b>Emma Watson </b>and <b>Logan Lerman</b>. Stephen Chbosky's new film <i>Wonder</i>, starring <b>Owen Wilson</b> and <b>Julia Roberts</b> is out now. <br><br><b>Charlie </b>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. <b>Charlie </b>is attempting to navigate his way through uncharted territory: the world of first dates and mix-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 <b>Charlie </b>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.<br><br><b>'A coming of age tale in the tradition of <i>The Catcher in the Rye</i> and <i>A Separate Peace</i>... often inspirational and always beautifully written' USA Today</b>
