I haven’t been able to take on dense books recently and I just want to feel like a teenager again so anything give me something easy to read but angsty as fuck
*The Perks of Being A Wallflower* by Stephen Chbosky
*The Catcher in the Rye* by J.D. Salinger
I’m sure I’ve read a dozen others but these are the purest “angsty teen” reads that pop into my head off the top. They all come with various trigger warnings, particularly *Speak.* So if there are themes you’re not comfortable with you might want to read some blurbs first.
I enjoyed all three as a teenager. I’m not sure I’d enjoy *The Catcher in the Rye* if I read it today.
