Perks of Being a Wallflower
Annoyingly good between being annoyingly boring. Missed what the great/evil aunt did to the poor kid, but wuzn't sure if it was because I fast-forwarded past it. Set in Pittsburgh, the lead kid does good. As does the gay guy. More nuanced than most coming-of-age movies, but did they hafta show the dance steps at the sadie hawkins dance? Still, ittsa different take on things than you'd get from my eras, or most of the eras since. Not many freshmen are going to take out two football seniors without driving the 'rents car over 'em, but it was kind of geektastic. I hear the book is well liked.
