This is definitely one of my favorite books of all time. This book is about an average teenager names Ponyboy Curtis. He belongs in a gang call the Greasers because of their long Greasy hair. Throughout the entire book you can experience the pain and agony that Ponyboy is suffering along with him since the author depicts the details of the story very throughly. In this book you will be thrown into the life of a gang member and how he struggles for survival through harsh times such as a death of a friend, being treated like an outcast, etc. After reading this book, it gave me a whole new point of view towards my current life. If I compared my life to Ponyboy's, the "struggles" that I have is nothing when compared to his. It taught me how to get back up in hard times and how I should treasure my current life the way it is right now.
I don't have a favorite author, but S.E Hinton comes really close. She is so skilled at writing in first person while grabbing the readers thoughts by combining them with the main character's thoughts in the book itself at the same time. If you don't believe me, try reading The Outsiders. It will definitely surpass the believability that you guys currently have. Prepare to be amazed.
