Hello! I recently finished ‘the outsiders’ by S.E. hinton and I absolutely loved it. I’m looking for book recs that are very similar or generally similar to it. My favorite aspects of the book was the brotherhood and the message that boys can be affectionate without it inherently being romantic, that it’s okay for them to cry, to have feelings. I also really enjoyed the dysfunctional family / found family.
I loved the relationship that Soda, Darry and Pony had. It had to be my favorite part of the book overall. Soda and Pony’s relationship were everything to me, and I adored it every time they used a pet name for Ponyboy. I’ll also take recommendations for books that center around brotherly relationships, bonus points if they call each other pet names or something, lol… :,) really into that, as you can see… thank you so much! <3
