Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Kate

We had to read this book in school as a novel study. I finshed it in like 5 days.
I cant really remeber the detalails of this book because I read it a long time ago, but its about two gangs of teenagers. Greasers - poor, from bad famaly's, usually with no parents and I dont remeber the name of their gang but teenagers who are from rich famaly's and think very highly of them selves. The two groups are always in fights, serious fights with knifes. Later in the book two of the main charectors die.
This book is really deep and sad. It made me think about stuff, how not fair the world is sometimes, how people get judged by pointless factors.
Our teacher told us that S.E. Hinton wrote this book when she was in high school and how she saw things like that happening alot.
I would defenetly recomend this book to evryone! READ IT! IT'S THE KIND OF BOOK THAT WILL LEAVE YOU THINKING ABOUT THINGS.
