    1. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a meaningful and significant book to me. I enjoyed this book because it related to me. The main character Charlie is unpopular and he’s a "wallflower." Sometimes I feel like a wallflower. I blend in around my peers and I feel unnoticed. The definition of a wallflower is‚ "a person who has no one to dance with or who feels shy‚ awkward‚ or excluded at a party." Sometimes I feel shy around people‚ not wanting to socialize; I tend to stick around people I know.
