Summary: The Outsiders, my absolute favorite book!
Review: This is my favorite book because is a great reminder of how life, as I see it, is. I enjoy this book because it doesn't try to be anything its not. Hinton's novel is about tension and strife at any level. S.E. Hinton's plot is extremely easy to understand and to relate to if you don't have problems with the reality that people smoke, use grease in their hair, are violent sometimes, and listen to Elvis. These habits may not be common place where you live or have lived but they happen and have happened.

I also love this book because it is timeless to me. I can read it anywhere at anytime and enjoy it. Thank You.

Summary: A Teen's Life: The Outsiders
Review: I adored this book. I told of a young boy's struggle against the "Popular" crowd. The Socs always thought they were better. They were rich, but not in the things that really matter. The Socs had money, but not the loyalty and feelings that the Greasers had. Ponyboy was loyal to Johnny when Johnny had killed Bob. He stayed with him at the church. That's how true friends are. It showed how teens today feel: desperate and unloved. I felt sad because of the home life Johnny had, but happy that he had the gang to turn too. . . I loved it! :) I give it a perfect 10!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: What a great book!
Review: I think that this book was very easy to read. I found it quiteinteresting and I was surprised when I finished it. I was so caughtup in the novel that I had no idea that I was almost done with it! I think that the main character, Ponyboy, is someone that I can relate to. He has a tough as nails exterior because he wants to fit in with his friends, but throughout the novel, you find out that he is very soft on the inside. Ponyboy and Johnny, his best friend, accidentally kill a rival gang member. They have to go hide out in an abandoned church. Johnny is injured while trying to save some small children from the burning church. Ponyboy goes through many mental and physical traumas that keep you glued to the book until it is finished. I highly recommended this novel as a short read, but well worth the time.

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Read this book
Review: I picked this book up at random off my friend's floor, more because it was the only book she owns that I haven't read yet. I asked her about it and she went insane, how it's sooooooo sad and the best book ever and she'd kill me if I didn't read it. So i did. I was enthralled for the first half and cried for the entire second half of the book. This book is incredibly insightful into Ponyboy's mind and the motivations behind everything. The author was 16 when she wrote this. the writing style is really sophisticated though, and when I read that she was just 16, i was shocked. But at the same time, it made sense, because this book really understands firsthand what it means to be a teen, and it still rings true even after 30 years. this is one of the best books I have ever read. It is touching and poignant and comprehensive and everything you could ever want.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Makes you think what insignificant violence can cause
Review: I liked a lot the book, at first I was not so excited about reading it, i had to read it for my English class, but after i started reading it i could not take my attention of the book, it makes you think about the violence that exists, just because of diferent clothes or diferent hairstyle, I recomend this book to people that belong to gangs or something like it, by the way I want to say hello to my teacher Dino!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of The Best Books I Have Ever Read
Review: The Outsiders was an awesome book. It had so much meaning in it and it was in a lot of depth. Plenty of books have been based on this one. It's core reading and a pleasure for anyone to read at any age.
