You may be wondering or not how the title got its name The Perks of Being a Wallflower. In this book there is a point where he catches his friend doing something, he listens to what his friend says about it and promises not to speak of it. His friend (Patrick) says "He's a wallflower," (page 37) and then to Charlie he says "You see things. You keep quiet about them. And you understand," (page 37). The author of this book is also the director of the movie which is great because he really did do a good job of making it a movie. You have to keep in mind that in the book his name and all his friends names aren't their real names he just uses them so the reader can not find out who he is. We never find out his real name. This book shows you the twist and turns of someone's life and what those memories even from years ago can cause you to do unexplainable things.
