Today we're taking a look at one of Aracely's childhood favorites The Outsiders by SE Hinton. Sonya finds Ponyboy to be a little hard to relate to, but both Sonya and Aracely agree that for a book written in the 60's it tackles a lot of material that's still had to address in today's day and age. Aracely also finds that she can appreciate more of the story now reading it as an adult!
