The Perks of Being a Wallflower

The reason I didn't like the book is simple. I don't like being sad. I don't find it entertaining to read awful, heart-wrenching books. I honestly wouldn't have finished the book if I hadn't paid for it.
I don't need to read about these things in order to be reminded that they happen and they're a real problem. I know that. I don't need to read about these things to see that I have it off so much better than other people. I also know that, and I am grateful for it every single day. All this book did was make me very sad and I see no point in that.
