" Before we start talking about the fourth and final part of The Perks Of Being A Wallflower, we have a big annoucement to make: October Seventeen cover star Nina Dobrev will be joining our Perks Twitter party this Saturday from 2:00-2:30 P.M. E.T.! This is your chance to chat with Nina about the book and ask her all about the movie, which comes out on Friday, September 14, 2012. In the movie, Nina plays Charlie&amp;#039;s sister, and as you know by now, she goes through a lot in the book: getting hit by her boyfriend, getting pregnant, and in the fourth part, being there for Charlie when he is in the hospital. Seventeen editors will be helping Nina host the Twitter chat. Start tweeting your questions to @seventeenmag using the hashtag #17perks now! OK, on to part four! It took a terrible fight between Patrick and Brad to mend Charlie&amp;#039;s relationship with his friends. Do people at your school ever make fun of someone for being gay? What is your reaction to it? Do you think Charlie was right to step in and fight Brad&amp;#039;s friends? Patrick, who is usually pretty goofy and happy, becomes really depressed after what happened in the lunch room and starts hanging out with Charlie all the time. To numb the pain, Patrick starts drinking and going out a lot. Do you or anyone you know use partying as a way of dealing with pain? Do you think it works? The night before Sam left for college, she hooked up with Charlie. It turns out, Sam was waiting a while for Charlie to make a move on her. &amp;quot;You can&amp;#039;t just sit there and put everybody&amp;#039;s lives ahead of yours and think that counts as love. You just can&amp;#039;t. You have to do things,&amp;quot; she tells Charlie. What do you think Sam means? (By the way, if you&amp;#039;re a sucker for good Perks quotes, check out the movie Tumblr!) Sam also told Charlie that by doing whatever Patrick wanted him to do, he wasn&amp;#039;t being a good friend. Do you agree? How do you think Charlie should have acted?  Unfortunately, Charlie&amp;#039;s hookup with Sam made him realize something very bad happened to him when he was younger that we hasn&amp;#039;t aware of until now \u2014 his Aunt Helen used to touch him inappropriately on a regular basis. What a terrible realization, to learn that the person you admired the most did something so awful to you. These feelings confused Charlie so much that he spent the summer in the hospital, seeing a therapist and getting treatment. What did you take away from the book? Did you relate to anything in particular that Charlie went through during his freshman year of high school? One of author Stephen Chbosky&amp;#039;s big take-aways is conveyed in something Charlie&amp;#039;s teacher Bill says: &amp;quot;You can&amp;#039;t change the past, but you can choose your future.&amp;quot; Charlie can&amp;#039;t change what his aunt did to him, but he can choose to move forward. Does this quote relate to anything you&amp;#039;ve gone through? Share your thoughts in the comments section or on Facebook. And don&amp;#039;t forget to tweet us your questions for Nina with the hashtag #17perks. Join our Perks Twitter party Saturday, September 15, 2012 from 2-2:30 P.M. EST.
