The Perks of Being a Wallflower was so good.

"I can't do this for another minute," Steve thought. Steve thought that the end had to be coming, he looked, and there was still 12 hours to go. Steve thought, "This is really bad." Steve scratched his arm. Steve made it half-way through this and couldn't go on. Now, Chbosky has returned with an epic work of literary horror, years in the making, whose grand scale and rich emotion redefine the genre.

Twenty years ago, Stephen Chbosky's The Perks of Being a Wallflower made audiences everywhere feel infinite. He returns with a voice in his head only he can hear, with a mission only he can complete: Build a tree house in the woods by Christmas, or his mother and everyone in the town will never be the same again. Until Christopher emerges from the woods at the edge of town, unharmed but not unchanged. Just one highway in, one highway out.Īt first, it seems like the perfect place to finally settle down. It's as far off the beaten track as they can get. Together, they find themselves drawn to the tight-knit community of Mill Grove, Pennsylvania.

Determined to improve life for her and her son, Christopher, she flees an abusive relationship in the middle of the night with her child. We can swallow our fear or let our fear swallow us. A young boy is haunted by a voice in his head in this "haunting and thrilling" (John Green) epic of literary horror from the number-one New York Times best-selling author of The Perks of Being a Wallflower.
