Richland Library North Main
LatinX Book Group
Thursday, May 2, 2024 6:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.
Join us for a book group discussion of this month’s title, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, by Stephen Chbosky. For more information or to arrange to pick up a book call Zsuzsa Czakone at 803-754-7734.
The critically acclaimed debut novel from Stephen Chbosky, Perks follows observant “wallflower” Charlie as he charts a course through the strange world between adolescence and adulthood. First dates, family drama, and new friends. Sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Devastating loss, young love, and life on the fringes. Caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it, Charlie must learn to navigate those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.
A years-long #1 New York Times bestseller, an American Library Association Best Book for Young Adults and Best Book for Reluctant Readers, and with millions of copies in print, this novel for teen readers (or “wallflowers” of more-advanced age) will make you laugh, cry, and perhaps feel nostalgic for those moments when you, too, tiptoed onto the dance floor of life.
LatinX Book Group meets the first Thursday of every month from 6:30 - 7:30 at Richland Library North Main and on Zoom. We will be on hiatus during Summer. We'll see you for the next book in September!
