    Uno de mis libros favoritos de todos los tiempos.
    Lo he devorado en casi dos tardes y no puedo mas que decir cosas buenas sobre el libro.
    Y claro está, este libro sobre lo que mas trata es la amistad. Pero la de verdad, esa para años y años...
    Me sentí tan identificada con casi todos los personajes, ademas de la forma de ser de Charlie, los libros que le daba Bill, las cintas de canciones que creaba Charlie, y en general, las circunstancias y las conversaciones, me parecieron muy realistas.
    No voy a negar que muchas veces Charlie me recordaba a Holden, pero aunque ambos son libros diferentes, tienen importantes cosas en común.
    Lo único que aveces no iba muy acorde conmigo, es la positividad que tiene el prota en algunas cosas, pero creo que es bueno.
    Y estoy tan contenta de que van a hacer la pelicula!!! Y que el escritor del libro, sea el director y guionista de la pelicula xD

  • She said that with a girl like Mary Elizabeth, you shouldn't tell her she looks pretty. You should tell her how nice her outfit is becuase her outfit is her choice whereas her face isn't.

  • «God, that kid is such a fucking freak»

    Parte con cliché americani e un protagonista di un'innocenza stucchevole e finisce con personaggi adorabili e pensieri di una profondità sorprendente.
