The Outsiders



Book to Movie Comparison

I think the The Outsiders did not stay true to the novel because there was little things that were different but there were some part there weren't there and the were very different. One of the parts that were missing was that they didn't show the part where they were in court. Also other parts some more important than others. I think the characters/actors did an okay job but they left out the part where Ponyboy realizes what Johnny was saying in the note that there is a lot of hate and that there are many people that judge people from hoods. I think this a good message because it's true and I am glad that Ponyboy realizes this. But there were similar parts like when Johnny killed Bob and they asked Dally for help and when they went to the church in the country. Also when they saved those kids from the burning building and before the rumble when Randy and Ponyboy were talking.

The Importance of my Dog

Something that is very important to me is my dog, we rescued her from a dog shelter five years ago. We got her when I was eight years old and she was 1, she is now six years old, and when we got her they told us that it was a good choice because the next day they were gonna euthanize her so we were really happy to save her. She is also a really good comforter because she is really playful so she makes you feel better if you aren't.

Fault In Our Stars Book Review

  Book review of the Fault in Our Stars...

   This book is really good, it is kind of sad, I’ve read the book and I’ve since the movie but I still can’t decide which is better they are both really good though. But in the book there is a poem that I’ve read before it is call “Nothing Gold Can Stay” personally I think that the theme is that nothing gold can stay because in the book Hazel loses Gus her love of her life meaning that most things don’t last forever and you shouldn’t take things for granted. Also I didn't get why Gus had to die because everyone thought that he would get better and that he could beat cancer but ends up dying and it is just sad for everyone specially because it was very unexpected. Since it was so unexpected Hazel was even more devastated.
