my friend josh happened to be carrying around the book the perks of being a wallflower today at school.  i started flipping through it and it felt really heavy.   i read a few lines here and there and it me made really happy and sad all at the same time.  strange how just the presence of a book can make me so goddamn emotional.  i really want to read the bell jar.  i'm pretty sure that's what it's called.  instead i'm stuck reading a tale of two cities, for english.  it's alright but it's not something i really really want to read ya know.  does anyone know the theme of the book.  i don't think i'm far enough a long and i'd like to know.
