Yoshi (40 KP) rated The Perks of Being a Wallflower in Books

Oct 29, 2018

I'd give the story itself a three, but I'm rating the book lower because the author does not seem to understand how it is nearly impossible to have as many issues as Charlie does including the depression, drinking, and occasional drug use, and still be able to get straight A's. Although I still had a handful of potheads in my AP and Honors classes in high school, they were all B and C students who did the minimum amount of work needed to get by.

The book is okay, but you're better off reading Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson or Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher.

Joker begins

Contains spoilers, click to show

Arthur fleck is a struggling comedian with history of depression and a medical condition which causes him to laugh when in physical or mental pain. (Makes sense given the character being portrayed).

Finally being pushed over the edge of his own sanity & idolized by the people of Gotham who feel forgotten & pushed aside, Arthur dons the name 'Joker' & decides to take matters into his own hands by violently retaliating against the wealthy.

Joaquin Phoenix is fantastic and plays the Role brilliantly bringing a dark, intense character to the silver screen in an origin story that is a must see.....knock knock.......
