The book is basically about a teenager, who prefers to be anonymous and calls himself Charlie, who is going into high school and is telling his stories to who is known as "Dear friend". He tells of his and the experiences of high school but mainly focuses on him. Covering things from awkward dates, family drama, sex/drugs, and really anything in between that you'd expect from a four year trip of dread and some happy moments. Really just about growing up.
As far as "Charlie" as a character, he is more of an awkward and odd/confused boy. He's more of a person to keep to themselves and try and fly under the radar, with his brother as a college football star and his sister, well they don't really say much so far, but none the less he has a lot to work up to and he's really just an average kid getting a taste of life. Little off the subject but in order to really know him you have to know what hes up against. Academically, he isn't the best at math but, when it comes to reading he is a little bit of an expert as he is in an advanced class. He loves reading is all that needs to be said. Other than all that so far he isn't described very much, maybe further on he'll get more of a personality as a character.
