This book is about a boy named Charlie who sends letters about his life to someone who doesn't really know him, keeping his identity secret, about his life. It's about how he starts high school and makes new friends like Sam and Patrick and what happens in his life that year of school.
I really loved this book and thought it was really well written and would recommend it to anyone over 12 who enjoys a fictional book from the real world. My favourite character is probably Charlie because he is a big reader like I am, also he is really sweet and puts other peoples feeling before his. My favourite part is definitely when Charlie, Sam and Patrick are in the pickup truck with Patrick driving and this great song comes on so they turn is up as they are going through a tunnel and Sam goes on the back of the truck and stands up against the wind, all listening to this great song. My favourite line comes in that part when the songs over and Charlie says "I feel infinite" and Sam and Patrick look at him like he just said the greatest thing ever.
I would absolutely give this book 5 stars and highly recommend it and the movie when you have finished the book. It is a great book and an emotional roller coaster.
