The Huffington Post, who debuted the track list, also shared liner notes written by Chbosky:
Over many years, I have collected songs. I’ve shared them with friends. And they have shared their favorites with me. Some of the songs are popular. Some of them are not known by a whole lot of people. But they are all great in their own way. And since these songs have meant a lot to me, I just wanted you have them as a soundtrack for whatever you need them to be for your life.
The Perks soundtrack will be released September 18 – the same day the film opens in limited release.
Yesterday, 16 high-res stills from the film were released.
