Perks of Being a Wallflower
In College lit, I am reading a book called Perks of Being a Wallflower; great book. I think it's the meaning of it, the fact that when your a teenager everything seems good in the world. Reality hasnt hit us yet. As we grow not only do we learn more but we also realize more. We arrive in a state of conscience, we may like it or we may not. It's a matter of personal strength. Can you fall into peer presure or can you beat it, and in the end are you strong enough for the down fall? I can fall into peer presure alot. I make sure that I want to do it before actually doing it but I can ralate to the charector in this book.

I also think The Perks of Being a Wallflower has a good meaning, especially what's revealed in the ending. Charlie definitely did learn and grow throughout the book. I also agree that a teenager's life is often centered around falling into peer pressure or beating it. I think a lot of that is also centered around who you surround yourself with; in Charlie's case, those people probably weren't the best decision in that way.
