I love this book. I’ve now read it twice and it’s broken my heart both times. 
This book is about friends Mark and Bryon. They’re like brothers, until they’re not. It’s a story of their relationship through thick and thin. 
It’s emotion, yet funny, it’s cheesy but it’s so REAL. The end always always gets me. 
If you liked the outsider you’ll love this one!! Ponyboy even makes an appearance!
