Perks of Being a Wallflower-Charlie is a dynamic character

I just finished reading the book Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky.  Charlie is considered a dynamic character because he changes a lot throughout the story.   The book is mainly about a high school freshman, Charlie, who is considered an outcast by his peers and didn't have friends in the beginning.  On page 18 he wrote about when he went to the school football game, "I went alone because Michael is gone, and Susan hangs around different boys now..." (Chbosky,18).

Evenutally Charlie became friends with 2 seniors and they introduced him to other people.  Charlie became much more social and even went to lots of parties and hung out with friends.  On page 197 Charlie wrote, "Every night, we would all get together after Sam had just said goodbye to some uncle or had another lunch with her mom or done more shopping for school things."  Charlie became really good friends with Sam and her brother Patrick.

I also noticed that Charlie seemed very depressed in the beginning of the book because he was really sad that his best friend Michael committed suicide.  But once he found new friends and became more social, he was talking less of sad things and more of happy things.
