The book The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton is a very sad and depressing book. It's about two different neighborhoods: the rich neighborhood, where the Socs  live, and the poorer neighborhood, where the Greasers live. In this book the Socs for fun get drunk and then go out and jump Greasers. The main character Ponyboy (it even says that on his birth certificate) goes through the death of his best friends.

I personally liked this book, but I would recommend this book to people who don't cry easily and who do like violent books and depressing books. You will be surprised who wrote this book. Hope you like it!!!!!!!

The Outsiders is a great book about gangs and their problems in New York.  A gang of kids called the Greasers don't have much money at all.  The Socs are known for having a lot of money.  They are always trying to jump the Greasers.  Pony Boy is a Greaser who has to deal with death.  He runs away and goes through a lot of changes in this very powerful story.
