Rating:  Summary: rumble fish Review: Rumble Fish is one of the best books I had ever read. Rusty James is the leader of small, gang in an industrial town. He lives in the shadow of the memory of his absent, older brother, The Motorcycle Boy. His mother has left, his father drinks, school has no meaning for him and his relationships are shallow.

Rating:  Summary: Too Good To Be So Short! Review: Being a 15 year old I can really relate to S. E. Hinton's works. She has inspired me with Rumble Fish and The Outsiders! RUmble Fish was one book that I could not put down, but I ended up reading in one sitting. The pain the character goes through brings you closer with him. I enjoyed this book very much, but I felt it should have been longer. I wasn't ready to finish it when I did! I Love Susie Hinton! -Megan
Rating:  Summary: A Moving Story That Tugs At Your Heart; A Must-Read Review: Rumble Fish is an excellent book about a boy growing up in a tough neighborhood in a rough family. The boy idolizes his older brother and emulates him in any way that he can; he wants to be just like his brother. The problem is that he's not like his brother--he's an individual, but he doesn't realize it. This book took me on a rollercoaster ride, where I would be laughing aloud one minute, and have tears on my cheeks the next minute. The end of RUMBLE FISH had such a tremendous effect on me-- it blew me away. The story stirred many emotions inside me and I know that it is forever encased in my heart and I will remember it always. I've read several books by S.E. Hinton and she is, by far, the best author I have ever read. On my third read of her book, THE OUTSIDERS, I still had tears twinkling in the corners of my eyes. RUMBLE FISH should be a must-read for young adults, especially those that are searching for themselves right now, or those that have become followers, and are not their own person. This book teaches a valuable lesson; you have to search a little to find it, but it's there
Rating:  Summary: Greta book Review: I found this book to show me alot, and even though it was made for teenagers, all adults should pick it up too. Reading it helped me understand life better.
Rating:  Summary: Rumble Fish Review: The main characters name is Rusty James and he has had a troubled childhood. The other characters were his big brother known as the motorcycle boy and his best friend Steve. It gives you an idea of what it was like as a teenager growing up in the projects. It was in the projects of a somewhat big city. It keeps you guissing and could change your life.
