This book had me confused and conflicted about what the characters were thinking and why they made the decisions that they did. Particularly Ponyboy.

And I kind of spoiled myself by looking up clips from the film version, which was something I really should have avoided doing. 

But ultimately I felt that the ending saved it.

Sorry this review is a bit weird, I'm typing it from my phone, I might update it at a later date.
