A review by da_bos
Ponyboy by Eliot Duncan

dark emotional sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

The writing is skillful, no doubt. But the plot is too drawn out, too repetitive for my taste. The book feels like a short story or novella stretched into a novel.
