Rating: Summary: Hinton's best work,besides the Outsiders Review: I am only ten years old and I have already read all of S.E. Hintons novels.This one is my favorite besides the outsiders.It is a must read for all middle school students and advanced readers like myself.
Rating: Summary: a beutiful story about the growing apart of of best friends Review: at first i thought this book was too sad ,but i now realize that the truth must be sad . i really liked seeing world through bryons eyes espeically how he viewed mark.
Rating: Summary: 20 years later, and I still love to re-read this book! Review: This book has the same affect on me as it did when i first read it in 7th grade. I graduate in may to teach High school level English, and this book is tops on my list to teach. Mark and Bryon's problems are still something that today's adolescent can relate to. Every time I read the ending, I struggle along with Bryon about what he did.
Rating: Summary: About the book Review: I thought the book was horibble because They are doing everything in it that teachers and parents are telling us not to do. I am 13 and I had to read that book for school.and I don't think it was to approatie
Rating: Summary: ive never cried at a book before Review: I have never cried at the end of a book before. I did though at this one, I loved the book but the ending was so sad. I think I would have liked it more though if Mark and Bryan stayed friends
Rating: Summary: sorta good Review: i thought it was an okay book. the kind you enjoy and learn lots from but i wouldn't go so far as to read it repeatedly. all in all, a very realistic book about very real problems. i think it's a good book to read as a study for high skool students.
Rating: Summary: Is still wonderfully effective for class use Review: Year after year, I read this superior novel with my middle years students in a public school setting. I am in the process of reading it now with my class, and it amazes me how effective this novel still is (thirty years after it was written!!!) I teach in a VERY inner-city school environment. Many of my students are from Indian Reservations from outside the city, and their interest in this book is peaked. I am able to branch off into so many other areas of interest from this book, and it delights me to see so many of my students take it home at nights upon their own initiative.This book is a MUST READ for all middle years teachers and students. It hits me now the same as it did in 1975 when I first read it as a student in grade eight.
Rating: Summary: Excellent It relates to todays society & especailly teens Review: I like the book in that you don't want to stop reading.I liked that it relates to todays society and especially the teens.I higly reccomend this book to people who don't like reading. S.E. Hinton has gotten me reading books like these now.Enjoy the the book.
Rating: Summary: This book is interesting but is inverted at the end. Review: This book is very interesting , it kept me turning the pages. Yet at the end the whole idea the author had painted for us about Bryon is totally inverted. This makes me think that the author became tired of writing this story and decided to give it a quick-fix ending. I beleive that he took much more time and care in writng The Outsiders.
Rating: Summary: THE BOOK WAS GREAT! Review: I READ THE BOOK; I THINK IT WAS GOOD. I ESPECIALLY LIKED THE PART WHERE BRION RELIZES THAT THINGS ARE DIFFERENT. I GIVE THIS BOOK A PERFECT 10.
