Ponyboy? Who?
One thing that you can believe is, when your elders say that you don’t stay the same, they are correct.
They mean that you change the way you think, the way you do things, the way that you look upon the world. I’ve heard this said so many times that I can dream about it.
In other words, I used to adore this book. And I thought Ponyboy was adorable. Of course, I was twelve-years old and had different standards for adoration (maybe).
I have to confess, though, I wasn’t confused like him. I thought that he should snitch.
Still, I give this book four stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have been rereading a few of the books of my youth and you're so right we change. It's a mixed bag, but something still hold some enjoyment, but the world changes too and now I am so hyper aware of somethings that there's a lot of things that have become dated in a negative way as to removed some of my enjoyment. This is just the way of the world and part of the sorrows of growing up but there are some writers who have transcended time and can be read in any day or age. Those are treasures. 🙂
You wouldn’t believe me if I could tell you how many books I once loved reading during my childhood and then my youth. Many of the books I once loved so dearly, I can barely read them now. I’m still reading books that I have read ages ago. Thank God, some of these I still love.💕
