The Outsiders by: S.E. Hinton

Hello fellow readers,
This book is one that many schools use for discussion, my school has used it for over 20 years. Even though the book is outdated the themes are not and neither are the characters. This book is about two different social classes; Socs (not Socks!) and Greasers. These two groups of people think that the only way to solve a conflict is by violence. There is a depth to this story that none of us could ever understand. This book is about helping your friends, protecting your family, and "staying golden". This book written by a high school senior, as a creative writing project shows that everyone has a good and bad side, and that we need to work to show the good side even if its not what we're the best at doing.
I give the Outsiders:
3 1/2 stars
This is a tuff (yes its spelled right) book that you don't want to miss. Decide whether you are a Soc or a Greaser, read the Outsiders.
