Summary: vaughn's review for the outsiders
Review: It had been a long time since i read The Outsiders but i do remember a lot of it because a good book sticks with you for a lond time. It was very accurate on portraing what happens in the streets on a city. Another good thing about this book is that you can relate to atleast one of the characters because there are so many of them and they are all different in many ways. I think think that sometimes we all think about what we would do if we saw are friend being beaten up and a lot of us would do the same to save his life.I recamend this book mainly for younger poeple because it deals with a lot of situations that could or may have already came along. I think that YOU should read this book

Summary: The Outsiders
Review: I first read this book for Reading class. No one in my class disliked it. It was very moving. It made you laugh, and it made you cry. It made you fall in love with each character. Once I started it I couldn't put it down. I read ahead of the whole class. I guaranty no matter who you are, you'll love this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best book...........
Review: The Outsiders was the best book I've ever read. I read it for a school report, and I thought it would suck, but I read it 6 times since I got it 3 weeks ago. I cried everytime I read it, and it gives you an incredible sense of what it's like to be a kid from the wrong side of town. I can't get over how much I loved the book. No matter who you are, or where you come from, I think you should read this book. And if it doesn't leave you wanting to know more about Ponyboy and his gang, then I feel sorry for you, because I find myself wishing that there was more stories about all of them.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: great teenage fiction
Review: I read the book The Outsiders by SE Hinton. Can you imagine walking down the street, the next thing you know it five kids surround you. They attack the two of you. As they were going to kill you, your friend pulls a switchblade and kills one of them. Before you know it you can't go back home, the only thing you can do is run. This book is about two kids, Jonny and Ponyboy. It goes through their life and their problems. I give this book four stars because it is action packed! Hours feel like minutes when you get lost in this great fiction book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: If 0 Stars Was a Choice...
Review: Let me just say this a bluntly as possible: The book stunk. It seems to scream that violence and smoking is ok. In addition, no one can relate to the characters. They wear lots of hair gel and leather jackets. They beat people up. They smoke. They have weird names. Its one of those books that every teacher in the school is crazy about. However, maybe I shouldn't review the book. I didn't get past the fourth chapter, because I didn't want to suffer from a boredom attack. I reccomend this book to people who like senseless reading material. Do-mo. The End.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A "Coming Of Age" masterpiece
Review: Who know those kinds of books that can take you farther out somewhere than who've ever imagined, whether it's to an exotic and historic place or just to a far out land filled with joy, sadness, or even pain? Well "The Outsiders" is deffiantly one of them. It just captures you and takes you into the life of Ponyboy Curtis, the main character and narrater of this amazing tale. And while reading you just feel everything Ponyboy and his family and friends go through. The Author, S.E. Hinton, really makes this book so worthy to read by her well planed out plot line and charcter personalities. With her creativity she writes a book like no other, and makes you unable to put the book down from the first page opened to the last page closed. So I highly recommend this book for anyone who will enjoy a well thought out book with endless enjoyment.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Most Relatable Book I've Ever Read
Review: After reading this book, it left me with a feeling I've never felt before. I've never read a more powerful or memorable book for teens then "The Outsiders." S. E. Hinton is a wonderful author. If you are one of those people who isn't big on reading, give this story a try, and I'm sure it'll change your mind. S. E. Hinton's other books are also excellent. I've read them as well.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I've read this book over and over! It's so Good!
Review: Ever wonder what it's like to live on the outskirts of society? This book explains the life of a boy living with his two older brothers and about the gang they're in. This book shows Ponyboy's (the main character) loyalty to his gang, and what it's like to be an "outsider", not wanted, not cared about. The only people who are loyal to him are his gang.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Outsiders
Review: THE OUTSIDERS

I thought that this book was really good. It is about gangs and the hard times the Greasers went through with the Socs. There was only one bad part about the book. (Of what I thought) Was when two of the Greasers (Ponyboy and Johnny) went to abandoned church to get away from the Socs. I would give this book five stars. In this book, I thought everything was good but there is some violence. I would recommend that everyone that likes action and drama between the characters in the story then you should read the book "The Outsiders".

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: twas a grand dissappointment
Review: This book is about a young boy and all his friends back in the day. Back then, they were considered a gang, although nowadays, the concept is laughable. Anyway, this so-called "gang" is known as the greasers. They wore leather jackets and had greasy hair. This went back to the Happy Days years. There is also another "gang" called the socs, and they are rivals. The problem is, one day one of the greasers killed one of the socs. This book tells all about all the non-adventures of the greasers. Personally, it sucked big time, but notice how all the adults in this school seemed to like it. Probably because they were alive when people like this existed. So I suppose I should recommend it to all the adults alive in the 50s. This book wasn't up to my standards, seeing how there was extremely annoying characters and promotes smoking and beating people up. Not acceptable for flourishing young minds, but maybe for adults. I hope I never have to read it again in my life. Thank You.
