The outsiders is a very interesting novel because there are many unique characters with their own symbols, personalities, and characteristics. This story is about Ponyboy, a fourteen-year-old boy from a poor family, and he and his friends’ conflict and interaction with the upper class children. Many characters are described in a lot of detail and have their own personalities. I can relate to the characters in the novel because everyone is unique even though they have similar family backgrounds. This is how I see my family and friends. Even though we have similar background, we have different personalities and interest. My favorite aspect of the book is how Ponyboy and his friends help each other no matter how serious the consequences may be. This tell me a good friend can help you when you have problems. I recommend this book to people who likes stories with realistic characters and how they interact with each other.

The book, Outsider, was written by SE Hinton is a great story. First, the story is really deep and hard-understanding story. This story is really related to friendship and brotherhood. Ponyboy and his two brothers — Darrel (Darry), who is 20, and Sodapop, who is 16 has a strong bonding with his brothers. They don't have parents because their parents are dead in a car accident. There are two main gangsters in this story, the Greasers and the Socs. The Greasers are gangsters that live in east side and are poor kids. The Socs are the west side and the rich kids. The two gangsters hate each other. Some violence involved. In my opinion, this book has used some complex work that people might find hard to understand. I would give three stars to this book because the ending is kind of sad. I think the structure of this story is strong so that leads the reader to understand and state the problem clearly.
I think "Outsiders" is very interesting book. It talks about the daily life of the heros. In the normal hero book it only talks about the daily life of the hero and also normal hero books are like fighting and win and become a very famous and juice hero. But for this book, there was no hero. But for this story at first everyone is not hero they are normal people. So from this book it will teach us everyone can be a hero. Not just for the some people that have some super power or some special stuff. It tell us you can be a hero by any way. This is a really good book and I will suggest everyone to read this book. But the level of the vocabularies are high level for me. So when I was reading this book, I was searching some words with dictionary. So for some of them you might have to have dictionary to search for the unknown words.
I think that "The Outsiders" is very interesting and talks about that heros that appears in daily lives.. It not just a normal or general book talks about that hero can be anyone just by doing something that can help someone else. But while reading the book I also have some difficulties reading some vocabularies but it cool reading it.
Best book I've ever read!!!!
A great book about gang wars and other sorts and leaves you very emotional, and sad about some characters you had a connection with in the book.
The story was great, it talks about everyday hero's life. And the details of Greasers and Socs relationship, between two gangs. The story was about the complicated daily life of teenagers, it lets the readers feel the the story through the characters. The story has many climaxes, so it is interesting. It also talks about the relationships between families, and roles. I really suggest people this book, when you read it you will get your interest out of it, so you should read it.
The story was about bunch of greasers trying to survive and accomplish something in their lives Ponyboy, david, sodapop, dallas The main characters did not do anything, they were just trying to survive. Yes a lot that is the interesting part's of the story but you will have to read it yourself. Sodapop because they said he is handsome and nice one of the coolest dude's to hangout with. No i'm not really relate to them because they are very adult and they do some really illegal stuff It wasn't the best not really my style and sometimes I just didn't really understnad what they were trying tell. Yeah i would recommended only for those high level english people but for me it to difficult .
My friend told me that this book is really good. So I start to read this book. When I start to read this book, it was awesome!! I love the part that when Johnny save the child. I think this is a good book to read!
I read this novel as a class in literature and I really liked this book it was very different. I almost cried at the end .
