The author of this book is S.E Hinton. There are 180 pages in the book and it took me 2 days to finish the book. There are many things that you can learn from The Outsiders. But here is one that stuck to me and that I don’t quite understand yet myself. “Nothing gold can stay ” but I guess that's what makes it magical right, that little moment before something becomes something else would not have the same power if it was permanent and learning how to enjoy these moments instead of getting mad

The author created something different than a modern clique book that I read in my day to day life. Hinton’s word choice creates an interesting book where it felt as if it was non-fiction than young-adult fiction.

The Outsiders S.E. Hinton wrote her first book, The Outsiders, in 1967 at the age of 19. Before The Outsiders, she was pedestrian, but then became an eminent author; many of her books are still read today. An example of this is The Outsiders, which was an assigned book for me this year, almost 50 years after it was published.
