When I say that this is my favourite book. I mean it. I recommend is book to anyone no matter if they read or not. Yes it does deal with dark topics like gang violence and murder but it also has light topics like brotherly love and loyalty to friends. I have become attached to these characters and really think that everyone should read this at least once in their life.

I don't think this book is a masterpiece or perfectly written or anything like that, but there's just something about it that I find special to me—I can see myself rereading this over and over and still gaining the same amount of enjoyment. Back in 2016 I watched the movie a lot, and maybe that's why I liked this so much, it feels nostalgic, in a way. I just love how much Ponyboy's buddies feel like a real family, and the tenderness that lies beneath everyone's layer of tough.
