A classic for a reason! It’s a little juvenile but it’s supposed to be. Lots of heart. I’m gonna go read fan fiction about Dally and Johnny and wonder if the icon herself wrote it.

One of my first classics I ever picked up and was instantly enchanted by. I was swept up and obsessed with this world. Even though it so different from our modern times, the characters and dialogue are relatable and mirror any male’s transition from boy to man.
