I recently read the book The Perks of Being a Wallflower and it is definitely my new favorite book! I love it! I had borrowed it from a friend and now I am buying my own copy and I'm going to read it again (which I don't normally even do with most books). Seriously, if you haven't read it, you should! It's great!

Anywho, this icon was inspired by that book. I found that animation of the tape somewhere and resized it and added all the text and everything. If you haven't read the book, "One Winter" is a mix tape that the main character (Charlie) makes for one of his friends.

I wanted to make an icon to show my love for the book, but everyone makes the icons that have the quote "And in that moment, I swear we were infinite" (which is an awesome quote, btw) so I didn't want to use it. I decided to be original and made this one! =D

You can use this if you want, just remember to :+fav: it and credit me! ^.^

This is definitely a beautiful and original piece of art. For anyone who has read the book, this really is something that can be enjoyed. The 4.5 on Vision is just because the tape connecting the circles is a little bit hard to see. Other than that, it seems to be extremely original, even though there's so much other art inspired by this book. Something that can have a great impact on anyone who has read the book and something that can help people remember the part of the book when Charlie makes it and enjoy it. Even though it's such a small animation, it's amazing :)

Thank you! I made this 6 years ago, so I don't remember where I got the little tape animation.
