Flowers for Algernon

An emotional rollercoaster. It is rare that I lose myself to my emotions with a book, but I finished Flowers for Algernon fully sobbing. There is so much substance to this book, there's no way to put it all in a review. Not only do you feel for Charlie, and start to view the impatience of society and yourself in a different light, but this novel poses many philosophical questions: in particular, “what is my purpose?”
