A review by kstring
The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton

2.0

I gave it a fair shake--twice. I started listening to this, got 20 minutes into the audiobook, realized I hadn't been paying attention, and started the book over. Then, I made it 1/3 of the way through the book, thought about quitting, but kept pushing through. By 2/3 of the book, I was done and called it quits. The book just didn't snag my interest. Obviously I'm impressed that this book was written by a 16 year old, but it kinda shows. I didn't understand what the point of the book was--what was the goal for the characters? Where was the plot headed? It all seemed very unreal.
