Rating: Summary: The Outsiders-Non Stop Pain And Action Review: The Outsiders was like a football game: Non stop pain and action. The novel, by S. E. Hinton, is a fast-paced story about a family struggling to stick together on the bad side of town somewhere in Ohio. "Greasers," such as Ponyboy Curtis, the main character, get jumped by the rich "Socs." Ponyboy is living with his two brothers because his mom and dad were killed in a tragic car-crash. His life is turned upside-down when his friend, Johnny, commits a horrible, gruesome crime. Ponyboy and Johnny go into hiding causing further disruption.The author, S. E. Hinton, writes a gripping, compassionate story engrossed in this remarkable, electrifying novel. The Outsiders was quite simple to read but, S. E. Hinton makes the reader really get to know the characters and explains their feelings very well. We would recommend this book to any child who is between sixth and eighth grade.
Rating: Summary: The Outsiders Review: The Outsiders by S.E Hinton is a very suspenseful book that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Ponyboy Curtis lives with his two older brothers, Sodapop and Darry in a city in Oklahoma that never sleeps. They are part of a gang that lives on the East Side of town called the Greasers. They are all time rivals with the other gang that lives on the West Side of town who are rich called the Socs. Things get out of hand when Ponyboy and his best friend Johnny Cade decide to take a midnight stroll.... We think that The Outsiders is dramatic at times and adventurous and suspenseful at others.It also has a powerful impact on friendship. In our opinion, the Outsiders is a top notch five star book for ages ten to twelve!! by Sara, Mackenzie, Michael, and Vaughn
Rating: Summary: A Reflection Review: At first glance I noticed that many of the reviews were written by many young individuals, which suggests that this book is still finding a place in many people's lives. It has been about ten years since I read The Outsiders, and although I hadn't thought about the book much over the past few years, it has recently caused me to reflect on many things. Most importantly, this book affected a change in my life. While quite good, I'm not speaking of the plot or the content of the book at all. Although I have not read the book in some years, I can attest that it has made a serious impact in my life. Prior to reading The Outsiders in junior high, I had never found a real interest in reading. Not just a mere interests, but a real appreciation for reading. Now that I'm in graduate school, having read numerous books, both fiction and non-fiction, I can honestly say that it was this book that really spurred on my desire to read, and for that, I thank the author.

Rating: Summary: Great Book!! Review: Great Book "The outsiders" is a very good book because the author knows how to connect with teenagers. This book is about a gang called the greasers that must deal with the other gang in the other side of town, the socs. In this book you will feel what a gang must pass to live in the city. I give it four stars because in some parts it gets boring. This book is for teenagers who like action and heroism but indeed in some parts it gets boring. This book connects you. You feel like if you are being comprehended. If you want to enjoy this book, you should explore it in depth. It has a surprising ending. This is a great action book. It also is enthusiastic, tragically and heart touching book that talks about a boy's life in the streets. This book will connect you. Believe me. I don't know how but I feel comprehended. When I read this book I felt how pony boy thought and realized that that was how I thought too! I really recommend this book. I hope you like this marvelous book. This is a fiction book but it could happen to someone. If you buy this book, you will know why I said all of this because believe me, you will like this book. Great Book, Good Time, Good Night.

The Outsiders is the greatest book and you should read it!
Rating: Summary: Greaser's VS Socs Review: This semester we were assigned to read a novel for class. I chose the book called "The Outsiders." The reason being because I heard this was a good book I just never had the spare time to read it. This class gave me that time and I took advantage of it and read the book I've been wanting to read. It took me the whole semester to finish this book. After reading this I realized how much I really do enjoy reading. I haven't sat down and read a book since middle school before I read "The Outsiders." Now that I have, I will read more often because I liked it that much. This book was an amazing story. It was hard for me to believe that a 14-year-old girl wrote this story. I loved reading this book. It relates in a way of what life is really like for me. I have my group of friends and then there is a group of friends who we don't get along with. I am glad I got the opportunity to read this book. I will now continue to read more often. I never use to read. But reading this book changed the way I felt about reading. Reading makes you escape the realness of reality. It lets you live in a dream or a fantasy. I recommend the book "The Outsiders" to everyone. This book is good for all ages and you will get in to it just like I did.
