Review: I give this book a ten out of ten! A strong message was yet again portrayed in this coming of age novel. S.E Hinton surely proves herself a fabulous writer! The characters were easy to love and the book itself surely did make you want to cry and throw it against a wall! Definatly one of my favourites! :)
