The Outsiders

Rating:
Summary: This book really makes you think.
Review: Ponyboy is what you call an "outsider." He, his two brothers, and all their friends have been named the Greasers. They are the hudlums of town. Their enemies, the Socs, are always looking for fights with the greasers. One night things go too far when Ponyboy crosses that thin line between social outcasts, and the popular people. This changes his life forever. This book really made me think about life and what happens when quarrels between the umpopular people and the popular people go too far. It sometimes even turns deadly.

Summary: THIS IS THE BEST BOOK WITH A REAL LIFE SETTING!
Review: This book really is realistic. Today, in the teenage world, sooo many people are excluded and have to learn how to deal with life problems on their own because sometimes they don't have anyone to go to that they can trust. I personally think this book is good for that and really makes the reader feel what is going on. This is a definite must read.....GO OUT AND READ IT!

Summary: Insiders is a better title for it!
Review: I originally started reading this book back in 6th grade, but ihad to return it to the school library and never got around to gettingit again.Then when we started reading it in 7th grade, I remembered it. I was so into the book and I liked it so much that I got mad when the teacher stopped reading it for the day. I eventually got it from the town library and finished it... S.E. hinton wrote this book when she was only 16! She must have gotten an A+ in her writing class! It went totally in depth and made you practically feel like a greaser. I felt like I was a really running from the cops. I think it should have been called the insider because you really felt Ponyboy`s feelings, not like you were watching from the outside!

Summary: Great Book for someone who hates to read
Review: I am now a freshman in high school and read "The Outsiders" back in 7th grade because it was required reading for middle school. At first, it just didn't intrigue me. I don't really like to read to begin with, but later I realized this was a great book! After reading it, and then seeing the movie...it made me want to read the book again. That's when I got all the details that I didn't catch the first time when reading it. "The Outsiders" is my all time fav book and the only book that I can read over and over without getting tired of it. --That's pretty good for someone that doesn't enjoy reading, right? hehe. I recommend this book for EVERYONE! A must read people, if you didn't get to read it in middle school! hehe =)

Summary: Great book!
Review: I've read a lot of books, but this has got to be one of the best. S.E. Hinton has very in-depth descriptions of the war between the Socs and the Greasers. I strongly reccommend this book.

Summary: the outsiders
Review: I think The Outsiders is a very good book. It gets into the story pretty fast and doesn't go off the subject. It is very dramatic and intense, especially when one of the main characters' friends gets scared and makes a dangerous situation lethal. I reccommend this book for kids that are at leat 9 or 10.
