The Outsiders:By S.E.Hinton

The book that we are reading is called The Outsiders by S.E.Hinton. The book is about a group of gangs called the greasers that is like family and how they have troubles with this group called the Socs (Socials). The greasers are pretty poor who grease their hair and the Socs are rich, pretty stuck up too. The main character is Ponyboy who is 14, he has 2 older brothers, Soda and Darry who is 16 and 20 years old. I think this is an ok book so far. I think my favorite character so far is either Soda or Cherry. Cherry is a Socs but that isn't as mean as the rest of the Socs and gets along with the greasers.

I am reading this book because we have to read it as a class room project. I like the book because i has to deal with a kid who has problems at his school in social life and we students have to deal with these things also. My favorite character is Archie because he is a little like me he is a tough guy but he is also smooth I am like him so that's why Archie is my favorite character because he reminds me of me.

Reality Check -Amanda

I'm reading the book Reality Check by Peter Abrahams. I think this book is really good so far. Its very interesting. I don't like Clea's dad because he is so strict to her. He shouldn't send her to Hong Kong over her grades. Also her grades weren't even that bad, all A's and 1 B. It makes Clea's and Cody's relationship hard because they barely get to see each other.
