The Outsiders [book, audiobook]
I MEAN, AS A BOOK I WISH I WOULD HAVE READ WHEN I WAS YOUNGER I DON'T REALLY MEAN I FEEL LIKE THIS WOULD SPEAK TO ME PARTICULARLY, BUT MORE LIKE, I SAW SOME REFERANCE TO A BOOK ABOUT PONYBOY AND HAD AN EXTREME "WHAT THE HECK ARE THESE KIDS READING?" BUT APPARENTLY EVERYONE ON EARTH BUT ME READ THIS IN 9TH GRADE.
I KNOW THE THING ABOUT THIS IS THAT IT WAS WRITTEN BY AN ACTUAL 15 YEAR OLD GIRL. IT'S NOT REALLY POORLY WRITTEN BUT I LOVE HOW YOU CAN FEEL THAT FACT. LIKE THE PACE OF THE BOOK IS SO FRANTIC, THERE IS NO PAUSE BETWEEN ANYTHING ANYTIME ANYONE WALKS LITERALLY ANYWHERE EVERYONE IS ALWAYS JUST THERE, THIS IS A WORLD WITH LIKE 10 PEOPLE THAT EXIST IN IT. ALSO EVERYONE ANNOUNCES THEIR ENTIRE PERSONALITY AND FUTURE WHEN YOU MEET THEM AND ALL THE DESCRIPTIONS OF ALL THE BOYS IS WAY MORE HORNY THAN SEEMS NECESSARY. ALSO I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE CONCEPT THAT A HOUSE OF RUFFIAN TEENS BAKE AN ENTIRE CHOCOLATE CAKE TO EAT FOR BREAKFAST EVERY SINGLE DAY INCLUDING MAKING HOMEMADE FROSTING. THAT FEELS LIKE THE ULTIMATE "THING A TEEN WOULD IMAGINE A TEEN LIVING ON THEIR OWN WOULD DO THAT NO TEEN ON EARTH WOULD EVER DO IN A MILLION YEARS"
PS. HAS ANYONE ON EARTH EVER CALLED A NORMAL CIGARETTE "A WEED"? WAS THAT A THING AT SOME POINT? DID PEOPLE DO THAT? WAS IT BIZZARE HALF HEARTED INCOMPLETE CENSORSHIP? WAS THE AUTHOR UNCLEAR ON CONCEPTS?
