April 2024 Review:
I originally read this back in 8th grade for my English class. I liked it and it was fun comparing it to the movie as part of my assignment.

I "reread" (I actually read it while listening to the audio) as part of one of my bookclubs. I was nice going back. I lost my original copy so I went and bought myself a new one (also the library copies were all in use). It's definitely a classic. Rereading it made me appreciate the books that were mentioned by PonyBoy -- especially because I've actually read them.
