Query: That Was Then, This Is Now- JUST PLAIN GREAT!!

I loved this book and you would to. It is the second best book I have ever read but only because I read The Outsiders first, though you should read The Outsiders first because you would understand That Was Then, This Is Now much better. Ever since I read The Outsiders I knew I would LLOOVVEE all of S.E. Hintons books (and and so far after reading thoes two and Taming the Star Runner I do). In conclusion I reccmond this book (and The Outsiders) to ANY teen, and just about every teen can relate to them. :-) :-) :-)
