Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes
5.0
I had to put this book down several times in order to be present and take a moment to give thanks. Flowers for Algernon is an introspective and inspiring novel that leaves you wanting to do better for yourself and those around you.
Having finished, I'm left in a melancholic state; Charlie's story broke my heart. Even though you know the inevitable is going to take place, there's no preparing oneself.
This book is necessary! I can't believe it took me so long to get around to it.
So many inspiring and thought-provoking quotes.
"All too often a search for knowledge drives out the search for love."
"Now I understand one of the important reasons for going to college and gettings an education is to learn that the things you've believed in all your life aren't true, and that nothing is what it appears to be."
