Review: In this book it tells whether rich, or poor, you still have some kind of problem. The rich kids are called socials or socs, and the poor kids are called greasers. Socials are mean, thinking they rule everything, and they pick on the greasers because the greasers are low class people, or poor. Greasers rob banks, mug kids, and still things.

Summary: The Outsiders
Review: Two completely different worlds, with so many differences and yet similarities at the same time. Ponyboy, a four-teen year old greaser lives a life with his two brothers where the two worlds are the low-class greasers, and the mustang loving socials. Ponyboy and the gang are always watching their backs for a couple of Socials to come up and jump them. He usually handled his life well, and was proud of being a greaser. Until things get taken too far and his friend, Johnny, kills a member of a gang. The effects of the murder get to Ponyboy and all that he knew starts to crumble, and he sees that both worlds have problems and all he needs to do is "stay gold".

Summary: The Outsiders
Review: I thought the book was good because of all the heroism and bravery in the book. With some events your stomach will turn and some you will feel sad. This will probably change your view of street gangs in the big cities. Most of the problems in the story are caused by neglect. It's really interesting and has lots of detail in it. Ponyboy runs into trouble everywhere he turns in the big city.

Summary: A Must Read Book
Review: The Outsiders is a great book! It's about two groups of boys and their sturggle with racism. When I started this book I couldn't put it down. It's an easy read and I'm sure everyone could read it. I rated this book 5 stars because of the authors unique style of writing, cicular writing, and her descriptive writing. I watched the movie shortly after reading the book and the movie is not good at all when you compare it to the book.

Summary: One of the best young adult works of literature i've read
Review: "The Outsiders" By S.E. Hinton was quite possibly the first book I ever read in School and understood. The characters are original, easy to sympathize with, and extrordinarilly well written. The book focuses on a gang of north end "greasers" who stick together through thick and thin, more a brotherhood than a quote un-quote "gang". When things go awry the two main characters are thrown into a sea of turmoil that only their friendship could overcome. An easy book to read and follow, this book is also one of the few to which the movie does some form of justice. Other phenomenal books by Hinton include "Rumble Fish", "That was then, This is now", and "Tex",
all of which also have movies that are true to the books which they are based upon. A must read for any one, particularily young adults.

Summary: Read This Book!
Review: This book was the best book i have ever read.I cryed and i usally never cry while reading a book.I cryed because the author,S.E.Hinton, described the characters so detailed that it felt like i knew them.I didn't read this book for pleasure, i read this book because i had to.It was for a book project and we had to pick a book of the list.To tell you the truth i didn't think i was going to like it,then i read and i loved it!There was so much going on you didn't want to stop.I had 3 days to fisish this book and i couldn't put it down.This book showed a lot of emotion. I am kind of a tomboy and this book was really cool becuase it had a lot of rumbles between the Socs and the greasers.The main character was Ponyboy and he was a greaser.He was 14 and i couldn't believe half the stuff he was doing.Smoking more then a pack a day, for once and so more very weird stuff.I have told people that they need to read this book because it is the best!I'm into the kind of books that have another one, so thats why i'm hoping to read, That Was Then,This is Now.
