About this listen
‘We gotta get outa here. Get somewhere. Run away....'
The Socs and the Greasers are rival gangs from the opposite sides of town. The Socs’ idea of a good time is cruising around in their flash cars and beating up long-haired Greasers like Ponyboy.
Ponyboy knows what to expect and that he can count on his older brothers and other friends—until one night when someone takes things too far. Ponyboy may seem tough, but on the inside he is running scared....

Since first grade, Christopher Creed has been everyone's favorite freak and weirdo whipping boy. But when he disappears without a trace, leaving behind only a strange e-mail message that might be a suicide note, his quiet town becomes consumed with speculation and finger-pointing. And the longer he remains missing, the more clear it becomes that for most people, finding out what happened to Christopher is much less important than finding someone besides themselves to blame.

Born into a family of modest means and respectability, Danny Fisher was gradually driven downward into the world of crime, racketeering and poverty. His bitterness, his homesickness over the loss of the house in Brooklyn that was given to him for his eighth birthday, and his feud with his harsh father, pulled him one way; his natural decency and his love for a sweet Italian girl, Nellie Petito, pulled him another.

In The Outsiders, you'll learn the traits and methods striking for their consistency and relentless rationality that helped these unique leaders achieve such exceptional performance. Humble, unassuming, and often frugal, these "outsiders" shunned Wall Street and the press, and shied away from the hottest new management trends. Instead, they shared specific traits that put them and the companies they led on winning trajectories: a laser-sharp focus on per share value as opposed to earnings or sales growth; an exceptional talent for allocating capital and human resources; and the belief that cash flow, not reported earnings, determines a company's long-term value.

Na pequena cidade de Tulsa, em Oklahoma, a rivalidade entre dois grupos cresce a cada dia. De um lado estão os Greasers, com suas jaquetas de couro, o cabelo com brilhantina, os canivetes em punho e o cotidiano marcado pela falta de perspectiva e pelas brigas em terrenos baldios. Já os Socs moram no lado rico da cidade, frequentam os melhores lugares e conseguem se safar das piores situações, inclusive quando decidem espancar os Greasers.

An 11-year-old boy's violated corpse is found in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City's most popular citizens. He is Terry Maitland, Little League coach, English teacher, husband, and father of two girls. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland once coached, orders a quick and very public arrest. Maitland has an alibi, but Anderson and the district attorney soon add DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. Their case seems ironclad.

“Stay Golden Ponyboy”
I’ve heard this quote a lot throughout my life but I didn’t read this book until my husband started teaching it to his students. I made it through this audiobook in one sitting (very rare for me). I loved it from start to finish. It made me cry, it made me think. The whole time I was just shocked it was written by a 16-year-old - even though maybe I shouldn’t be. Highly recommend.

my middle schooler had to read this for school. I having never read it decided to listen. I had no idea what it was about. I enjoyed the writing, voice acting, story. it was a quick listen and of course left me crying.

Stay gold
OMG very good book definitely recommend reading. it was both action packed and sad. My attention span is maybe 10 to 20 minutes but I listened so much like two chapters a day once even four. It was sad so if you cry at a book pls don’t read. STAY GOLD

Exceptional Stay Gold
This Book captures the raw intensity of being a teenager. There is truly no match for it! The fact that she wrote it when she was 16 makes it that much richer! If you are going to watch the movie make sure you watch the complete novel, not the original release. Coppola follows this extraordinary book to the letter!
