The Outsiders, Week 2

Welcome to Week 2 of the Online Book Club discussion of The Outsiders.

Did you all enjoy the first section? Did any of you have to read this book in school? I think I read it in eighth grade, so it's definitely been a while since I've read it! I like that it's a straight forward read. I felt like I was flipping pages really quickly! 

Do you enjoy all of the characters? Is there a boy that you find yourself connecting with more than the others? I like that the book is from Ponyboy's perspective. He seems so much more innocent than the other boys. I also really like the brotherly connection between Ponyboy and his brothers. I can't believe that Darry is so young but is doing such a good job raising his younger brothers. Darry definitely sacrificed a lot to make sure that the brothers could all stay together. 

There was a lot of action in these few chapters, didn't you think?
