Another one to be added to the list of books turned into movies is The Perks of Being A Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky. Some may think that it is just an ordinary story, but this is different. Trust me.
Well, these are the reasons why I think you should watch out for this movie on September.:)
1. It's Percy Jackson and Hermione Granger together!
What's better than these two getting paired up? Logan Lerman is Charlie in the story, and Emma Watson is Sam, Charlie's main love interest. Will Percy Jackson fans and Harry Potter fans unite for this flick? We'll see!

2. The book itself is very good.Even though it was published on 1999, the story can still be related to a teenager's situation today. It tells Charlie's story, how he is influenced by everything around him. It also shows how Charlie becomes a loner because of a friend's suicide thus making him confess his feelings and thoughts through writing to an anonymous stranger until he finds companionship with seniors, Sam and Patrick.

3. Nina Dobrev is Logan Lerman's sister in the movie.We were all aware of Nina being in The Vampire Diaries series, and this is our chance to see her in a different way. Will she be able to amaze us again like what she did to us in The Vampire Diaries? Let's find out. :)

4. Charlie's quotes.Nothing beats the quotes from books especially when it comes to life. Who would dare to resist Logan's look of sincerity? :">

5. It shows the importance of Friendship.
Charlie is a wallflower and has been a loner ever since his friend committed suicide. This was his life during the start of his first year in High school until he meets Sam and Patrick. The movie shows how one should appreciate the friends they have even though they are at the lowest points of their lives.
6. You'll hear good music from Charlie's mixed tape.
In the story, Charlie makes a mixed tape for Patrick for Christmas. It features various artists such as The Smiths, Nirvana, Pink Floyd, The Beatles and many more! Music lovers will surely enjoy this.

7. The Rocky Horror Picture Show SceneWe all know that the Rocky Horror Picture Show is a very famous musical. In the movie, we will be able to see the cast's version of the musical show along with their costumes!
8. It shows how a person can change.
Charlie was always known to be a wallflower, but with the help of Sam and Patrick, he was able to open up his shell and show what he thinks and feels unlike before.
I just hope I gave you enough reasons on why you should watch out for this amazing movie. :)
The Perks of Being A Wallflower movie will be released this year September 2012.
