A Little Life: A Novel | Hanya Yanagihara

The only trick of friendship, I think, is to find people who are better than you are—not smarter, not cooler, but kinder, and more generous, and more forgiving—and then to appreciate them for what they can teach you, and to try to listen to them when they tell you something about yourself, no matter how bad—or good—it might be, and to trust them, which is the hardest thing of all. But the best, as well.

We knew, finally, that the girls were really women in disguise, that they understood love and even death, and that our job was merely to create the noise that seemed to fascinate them.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower is the best book that I have ever read. I am yet to come across a more touching coming of age story. Charlie is a beautifully broken young man who just wants to find his place in the world. His character really resonated with me. I highly recommend it to everyone!
