I chose like lost, odd, and confused because the theme of the whole book is about Charlie and his mission to go through high school to find himself. I'm sure you can imagine nothing is more frustrating and confusing as being a teenage boy with millions of thoughts about suicide, sexuality and drugs on top of the pressure of finding yourself. Especially when you are all on your own.

The song I chose to describe my book so far is Frederic Chopin's Nocturne. This song is very slow, and soft for most parts. It has it's moments where it speeds up, but not by much. It makes me think of the main character from my book, Charlie. He is usually very down. Not quite dpressed but still pretty lonely, because he is a very unusual character. He can't relate to much and is indeed a wallflower. This song just expresses his mood.
