In chapter one my favorite passage is when Ponyboy says “I don’t care about Darry. But I was still lying and I knew it. I lie to myself all the time. But I never believe me” , because I can relate to what he said in so many ways. For example I’ll tell myself something and I’ll try to believe what I said, but in reality I know what I said is absolutely not true at all! Which now that I think about it is really funny, and I can also connect with Ponyboy on another personal level. When he says “I don’t care about Dally.” I automatically thought about me and how I’ve said I don’t care about someone when I really do. And it made me really feel connected to Ponyboy and the book itself because I can relate to to what’s going on, not just in the passage
