Rating: Summary: The Outsiders Review: The uptown socs get everything. That is Ponyboy's idea, at least. Ponyboy is a smart student in school but comes from the wrong side of town so he isn't always acccepted by his rivals. Though he lives in the poorest of the poor neighborhood, he is proud of it and willing to fight in rumbles just to prove they are the best. But when an unfortunate accident happens, he and his brothers lives are endangered and nearly torn apart. I felt this book was great. It helps you see that no one class of people have bigger problems than the other. This is something teenagers and adults both can enjoy.
Rating: Summary: The Outsiders Review: The Outsiders is a must read book that you will scream for more. There are two groups which fight against each other. One group is the Socials, which are wealthy. The other group is the Greasers who need to watch their backs from the Socials. One night two Greasers were hanging out. Then the Socials were fighting with two Greasers. One of the Greasers accidentally killed one of the Socials. The two Greasers go in hiding and try to keep a low profile from the cops. This book keeps you on the edge of your seat so that you will be turning pages for hours.
Rating: Summary: The Outsiders Review: This was an exellcent book in my opinion. I do think the author could have elaborated the details more after Ponyboy's bestfriend, Johnny, killed the Soc. See Ponyboy feels there are only two kinds of people. The Soc.(short for the Socials)are the ones who get all the breaks and extra privileges and then there are the greasers who have to always look out for themselves and basically have eyes in the back of their head and live on the bad side of town. Ponyboy is proud to be a greaser but he feels sympthany when a Soc. is killed. After the killing, a lot of events lead up to the surpising conclusion which you'll have to buy the book to read it. For a 16 year old, it is an exellcent book.

Rating: Summary: The OUTSIDERS Review: A troubled 14 year old boy who lives on the wrong side of the tracks. His name is Ponyboy. He and his friend kill another person form a rival gang and get into a lot of trouble. They decide to hide out somewhere safe until the whole thing blows over. After a week of hermit life and eating nothing but boloney sandwiches they make a critical decision. This decision effects what happens to Ponyboy and his friends. I liked the way the characters were so tuff and you could almost imagine yourself as Ponyboy.
Rating: Summary: The Outsiders Review: First of all, this story is about a fourteen year old boy named Ponyboy. In his town, there are two main groups. The Socials who are the filthy rich kids, and the Greasers who are the poor kids. Ponyboy is a regular old Greaser with a couple of good buddies. In the story, Ponyboy's life goes as normal, well at least to him, until one day one of his friends pushes things too far, and someone gets killed. Then Ponyboy's life goes spinning out of control. S.E. Hinton does a remarkable job on creating a wildly original and "Down to Earth" book. I think this book is very good and it is helpful for people wo want to know what's fair and what's not.
Rating: Summary: The Outsiders Review: The Outsiders is a book about low class greasers and upper class "socs", short for Socials. They are rival gangs that envy each other. After a few chain of events, they finally realize everyone has problems no matter who you are and how much money you have. The Outsiders was a great book that kept my interest throughout the whole story. The characters are fun to watch to see what they will do next.
Rating: Summary: The Outsiders Review: If you want a sad, funny, tough, and adventurous book, you should read "The Outsiders". It is about some boys who are hoodlums, and had bad reputations. As you read this book you will probably cry, and laugh, while discovering what they did, and what they went through. Discover a whole new world of life from this book. This is the best book that I have ever read in my life. My whole family loved it, and I hope if you read it that you will too.
Rating: Summary: the otsiders Review: THIS BOOK IS ABOUT "GREASERS" AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT THE "SOCIALS" CALLED THEM. THE GREASERS ARE POORER THAN THE MIDDLE CLASS, AND THE SOCIALS ARE RICHER THAN THE MIDDLE CLASS. WHEN TWO GREASERS GET WRAPPED UP IN A MURDER INVOLVING A SOCIAL, ONLY FATE KNOWS WHAT LIES AHEAD. THE MOST FULFILLING, FUNNIEST AND SADDEST BOOK I`VE READ IN YEARS.
