Took me a week or so before I picked it up again, and then read it straight through to the end. The way it finished tied everything up so well, I had no choice but to give it a 5-star. And to think that Hinton wrote it when she was a teenager makes it all the more impressive. I loved this book as much the 2nd time around as I did when I was a pre-teen! It reminded me a bit of West Side Story and the film, Breakaway, with the rival groups. Ponyboy and his brothers, Darry and Sodapop, are orphans, and considered greasers. Darry has dropped out of school to care for his brothers. One day, leaving the movie theater with his friend Johnny, his life changes. The socs (socials) see that Ponyboy and Johnny are talking to one of their girls. That ignites a fight, and leads to deaths. The social struggle between the groups, the needless killing, the love of family are all evident in this teen story. So hard to believe that S. E. Hinton wrote this when she was 15-16 years old! I had forgotten what a delightful read "The Outsiders" was. I read it many, many years ago and decided to try it again. I loved the narrator, Ponyboy. He was such a kind, sensitive, thoughtful boy and I felt complete empathy for him. In fact, all of Hinton's characters were fabulous, especially the greasers. Although only short, "The Outsiders" was a touching novel about friendship, family, discrimination and society. A wonderful read.
I enjoyed the book the Outsiders. I liked this book because it shows two seperate societes(greaser and the socs) can make make people very divided. But the strange thing is is that some of the people from each group don't want to be either and are similar in their ideas. This wass shown best through Cherrry and Ponyboy. I reccomend this book to anyone who likes a good book "The outsiders" was published in 1967, written by a 16 year old girl from US that was trying to write about the reality about teenagers on their hometowns. Ponyboy Curtis is the principal character. A 14 year old guy from "Tulsa" with two older brothers named Sodapop and Darry. Their parents just died on an accident, they didn't had much money and were bullied and beaten by a group of rich guys. Ponyboy and his brothers had a group with other two friends named Dallas Winston (Dally) and Johnny Cade. This group fight with the rich guys group. Once, they were at the movies and met some girls that acted friendly with them and talked with them but whe they go out from the movies Ponyboy and the group find out that the girls had boyfriends and the boyfriends were part of the rich group..This meant MORE FIGHT! My mood, or feeling for the story of the book changed when Johnny wanted to die and actually died. I think sometimes be a criminal it's not something you want to do, sometimes it's an obligation.

And on his friends. But not on much else besides trouble with the Socs, a vicious gang of rich kids whose idea of a good time is beating up "greasers" like Ponyboy. At least he knows what to expect—until the night someone takes things too far. Susan Eloise Hinton's acclaimed first novel, The Outsiders, was originally published in 1967 when she was a freshman in college and is as powerful now as it was then. She wrote it in response to a "greaser" friend of hers getting beaten up by a gang of "socs" and all the characters she says are "loosely based" on the people she knew growing up.
