All people have a different preference of what they enjoy reading. Some people enjoy romance. Some enjoy action. Some enjoy drama. Some enjoy the collaberations between romance, action, and drama. I am one of those people, hence my favorite book is The Outsiders. Not only does this book make you grow amazingly fond of the characters, but it helps you relate to them also. Whether it is teen romances, cliques, drama, or daily life, The Outsiders shows you the the dark side to society from the lower classes point of view. America is not all about palm trees and celebrities. There are many gangs up to date who still experience the problems that were told of in this novel. There are points in this book which feel like you have just had your heart pulled out and trampled on. Times when you cry even after finishing the book because that is how close you grow to the characters. And that is what i love about this book. It makes you feel human. It makes you feel all these emotions all for characters who have never existed. The Outsiders tells you about gangs that may be nonexistant, but relate to gangs in that era. These are real world problems that no one pays attention to just because they concern the lower class. On top of all these reasons why I and many love The Outsiders, is because of the beautiful quotes that have become so popular around the world. The Outsiders has numerous reasons to be a readers favorite book and it definitely is mine. Stay gold.
