Book Reviews of Flowers for Algernon

Book Review: Wonderful book
Summary: 5 Stars

The author's style is incredibly effective in more ways than one. The book is written in the format of a diary, and it's really quite neat to see Charlie's spelling & vocabulary go from mediocre to excellent and the regression of it. Flowers for Algernon is incredibly thought provoking, making you think of things that you've probably not thought of before, (if it doesn't affect you already) : mental retardation. This book brought tears in my eyes.
