Jjs Goodman Posted November 5, 2011 Author Posted November 5, 2011 I thought it was pretty good as well, and I can see why people still read it today. We had to read it for a while in my Literature class.
Old Man Jenkins Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 It's a great coming-of-age story. I remember my school was doing a play for it once. Wish I actually auditioned for a part.
Steel Sponge Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 I CAN'T BELIEVE I HAVEN'T READ THIS YET. I own the book, but laziness happens. I'll probably start around this month.
Sauce Mama Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 Great book! Really displays the culture, fun, and danger of the 50's. My favorite character was Soda-Pop <3
TJ Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 OMG loved this book (and movie). My favorite thing was Pony and Johnny's friendship, definitely felt sparks there. You guys know my class actually had played a Court Case whether Johnny was guilty or not? I was Johnny. I lost the case. xD.
WWESpongefan Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 I read this my 7th grade year. I pay attention in school but I can't really remember much about it. It was four year ago though.
Webizoid Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 I love it. Saw the movie as well and it lived up to expectations. Ralph Macchio looks 15 but is he was actually 20! My friend wrote a novel based on it. Pretty good.
Sebby Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 I read this back in 8th grade. The story is incredible and a real tear-jerker. Hard to believe it was written by a 15-year-old girl.
