Query: DISAPPOINTING.

Personally, I was disappointed. Based on the great reviews this book is getting on Amazon, I assumed it would have a lot to offer. I found Charlie flat and somewhat one-dimentional. Chbosky's attempts to build a character based on lists of his favouriute books and songs just don't cut it for me. Nor did the ending evoke any feelings of pathos- I found it to be a cheap trick by the writer to try and make his story moving and touching with the ending he wrote for TPOBAW. I will credit him that the letter-format added a personal touch but this was annihilated because I could not become close to a character when all the time the protagonist showed through so clearly Chbosky's attempts to build him into something deep, causing him to come across as shallow -quite the opposite.I'm sure this book does have something to offer because so many reviewers have raved about it but in my opinion this book left me empty and dissatisfied.
