I read this book for the first time at around 14 years old, and I had honestly forgotten how much I really love this book. And at 20, it's still something I like just as much, I couldn't even explain to you why, its such a simple book plot wise, yet- its really captivating. It keeps me interested the entire time the totally gay characters really helps but in just a simple way, it's easy to start feeling like you're part of the family, experiencing everything with Ponyboy.
