Summary: It Has to be the best book I think I have ever read!
Review: When I was in school I could not put It down. I have a brother who is slow and I remember crying while I read because I felt Charlie's pain and frustration, and still to this day I think about how harsh people's attitudes are towards others and I'm glad "flowers for Algernon" was written and to tell you the truth I wish that all teachers would hand out this book just as Mrs.Arden did for me.

Summary: An Original Masterpiece
Review: Flowers For Algernon takes you on a journey through anger, happiness, and sadness. This book is amazingly well written. It is a diary kept by Charly Gordon, a man who has lived in two worlds. He begins as a mentally handicapped man and evolves into a genius who soaks up knowledge at an incredible rate. But he must learn how to deal with what he learns about his life. I loved the book so much that I saw the movie too. Daniel Keyes created a masterpiece!

Summary: A FACSINATING NOVEL!
Review: When I read Flowers for Algernon, I cried a lot. How can someones parents hate him so much just because he is mental so that they send him off to somewhere else? This is probably the best book i've read so far. No one knew how to treat Charlie as a human being. Everyone just treated him as though he were nothing. Also no one understood his feelings. I think that every young adult should read Flowers for Algernon!

Summary: A human story that has stood the test of time.
Review: I first read about Charlie Gordon and Algernon when, as a twelve-year-old, I read the short story in an anthology. I have never forgotten it; the "progress report" format, the fast pace, but above all, the feeling that Daniel Keyes, by some alchemy that only happens in great writing, allows us to become, and in our souls to speak for, Charlie Gordon. Now, nearly thirty years later, I just read the novel. It hurt good, and I didn't want it to end. This is a classic.

Summary: a masterpiece
Review: I cried while reading this book; it was so completely devastating, and powerful. I can't pinpoint exactly what in the book made me feel this way, but there is one thing I am convinced of: it was one of the best books I have ever read, and definitely the one that has had the greatest effect on me. As I was reading this book I could relate to the character completely; it was as if a well of suppressed emotion had been opened in me, and in the book. I am convinced that this should be recognized as a modern classic, and should be used as a prime example of what I call "human" writng - writing about feelings that readers can relate to.
