Summary: This book is the best book I have ever read.
Review: The Outsiders was one of the best books I have ever read in my life. It was written very well and you could picture in your head what you are reading. The story about the Greasers and the Socials was a good idea because that is close to the truth in the real world. When the writer wrote about Johnny being jumped that was a good idea on her part because it to was close to the real world in some places. I would have to say that my favorite part of the book would have to be the rumble at the end because it had a lot of drama and it made you picture the rumble in your head as you were reading along. I think that the writer should have made the socials put up more of a fight than they did. This book has everything that you would want to read about, violence and close to real live situations. I recommend this book to anyone who likes to read or even don't like to read, it is a very good book.

Summary: a teen classic
Review: I love this book! I'm usually not into the books about gangs and all that, but I got this book at the library because I've heard about it so much and it was supposed to be really good. I am so glad I did! The Greasers were the "bad boys" from the tough neighborhood, but they acted very loose and they seemed so much more human than the Socs because they actually had emotion. I loved how Ponyboy and his brothers were very affectionate toward each other. Ponyboy himself was a very likable character. He tried to act tough and cool, but at times he was so vulnerable that I wanted someone to give him a big hug. Well, I can't talk about the whole book, but I'll just say that everyone should read this!

Summary: Ponyboy golden Dally silver
Review: With a slightly romaticized view of an era long gone S.E.Hinton attempts to take the reader into a world without rules, parents, and authority. Young kids left to their own join forces on oposing sides but they face similair situations in life. Each group, the Soc's and the Greasers, have their own version of reality. When these realities collide life altering circumstances ensue. From Johnny, the punch scared runaway to Dally Winston you get the feeling that everyone is running. Chasing Ponyboy's golden dreams of youth. Dallas choose his way out of the facade in a violent suddeness but Cherry chooses her own way out as well. You will love this book and the movie. You will revisit it a time or two down the road. The book with time, does remain golden. Dallas winston, maybe a little less golden. perhaps silver. Having a death wish is less than noble.

Summary: This Book is a really good exploration of gang life.
Review: This book shows how even in high class white neighboorhoods there is gang life and the reasons why some people are involved in this kind of life and the consequences of it. When you watch the movie then read the book you'll have a better idea of the characters. I rate this book 5 starts.

Summary: Verry Refreshing
Review: I think that this book is a must for anyone living in a society were they feel like there lost. Whats amazing about this book it that it was made when gangs were still trying to thrive in america today. I find it fascinating and quite entertaining of the "bad boy" imagery used in most of S.E. Hinton, is verry spectacular sieng as she is at that a she. A must for anyone who likes the ideas of gangs.

Summary: A good and Interesting book !
Review: The book " Outsiders " was a classroom novel in my 7th grade. A week ago I finished this book and I just want to say it was kind of interesting. S.E. Hinton did a good job explaining the characters exept at the end. At the end Johnny Curtis dieing was not a good ending. Even though the story took place between 1950-1960 it was still a good book to read. Because I enjoyed this book (SO,SO MUCH) I highly recommend it . I hope you will like it too.
