It's a story of what it's like to grow up in high school, tracing a course through uncharted territory in the world of first dates, family dramas and new friends.… (mere)
Caramellunacy: Both Speak and Wallflower are books about young teens struggling to find acceptance in high school while trying to deal with trauma - both without being preachy or cloying.
BookshelfMonstrosity: Both of these emotionally intense realistic fiction novels are set in the recent past, and feature misfit protagonists working through the agonies and ecstasies of first love, friendship, and surviving high school.
lucyknows: Virgin Suicides is pretty heavy going however there are quite a few films about teenage angst they might work.

I see a lot of negative comments on this book… Yes i did buy it because i saw there was a movie of it. And in my opinion the book really wasn't that bad. I really liked it, and yes maybe it's a wierd plot twist with the whole abuse thing it still was a good read. And as always for me the book was way better then the movie. ( )

“Charlie, we accept the love we think we deserve.” (Bill, Charlie's English teacher)
“Not everyone has a sob story, Charlie, and even if they do, it's no excuse.”
And I thought that all those little kids are going to grow up someday. And all those little kids are going to do the things that we do. And they will all kiss someone someday. But for now, sledding is enough. I think it would be great if sledding were always enough, but it isn't.
Because I guess we all forget sometimes. And I think that everyone is special in their own way. I really do.
The inside jokes weren't jokes anymore. They had become stories. Nobody brought up the bad names or the bad times. And nobody felt sad as long as we could postpone tomorrow with more nostalgia.
And all the books you've read have been read by other people. And all the songs you've loved have been heard by other people. And that girl that's pretty to you is pretty to other people. and that if you looked at these facts when you were happy, you would feel great because you are describing 'unity.'
