Rumble Fish Author: S.E. Hinton

I have read a book that is written by S.E. Hinton and the book name is Rumble Fish.

The story in the book is a drama Novell and the story take place in the 2000's therefore in the present. The story takes place in the city and sometimes indoors, the place is not rich or poor.

The book is about a guy named Rusty-James and he is a teenager, he is about fourteen years old. Rusty-James often finds himself in a fight and he loves the feeling before he fights. He has a friend called Steve Hays. Rusty-James and Steve are different, Steve is very sensitive and Rusty-James is tough. They are still best friends even if they are very different. When he is with Steve he feels that he doesn't need to be tuff. When Rusty-James gets into trouble there is always someone there to help him and that is the motorcycle boy who also is his older brother. Most of all Rusty-James wants is to be just like his older brother. But one day when Rusty-James's world turned upside down there is nobody there to help him.

The most important chapter is the first one because it grasps the reader's interest and attention. The first chapter in this book is good because Steve and Rusty-James met again after a few years. Rusty-James doesn't have a good memory, but when he met Steve he started to remember every thing.

Rusty-James is the main character, but it doesn't mean that everybody else is not important. I think that Steve Hays and the motorcycle boy is important character to because the author wrote much about them and they are important persons to Rusty-James. Rusty-James is a good-looking fourteen years old guy. His hair is an odd shade of dark red, like black-cherry pop and his eyes colour is like a colour of a Hershey bar. Rusty-James is tough, but he doesn't like to show his feelings to anybody and he also doesn't like to be left alone. That is because of when he was six years old his mother left him and took his older brother with her. His father is an alcoholic and when his wife left him and Rusty-James he went to a bar to drink and left his son for tree whole days. Rusty-James wants to be exactly like his older brother. He changed much during the book. Rusty-James act coldly and never cries but, in the end he became sensitive and started to cry allot.

Steve is fourteen years old, but looked like twelve. He had dark-blond hair and dark-brown eyes. But Steve is not like Rusty-James; Steve is a sensitive and clever guy. Steve has fixed times when he most comes home and his parents don't let him do what ever he wants. He study good and he is more like the geeky variety.  Steve is Rusty-James best friend. He didn't change much during the book; in the end he is still sensitive.  

The Motorcycle Boy is seventeen years old, but looked older like twenty-one. He was good-looking and colorblind and partially deaf. His hair and eyes was the same as Rusty-James and he was six foot one. You can never know what the motorcycle boy is thinking but when Rusty-James thinks you know what he is thinking. Everybody is afraid of him because he is a tough guy. He always helps Rusty-James when he needs help. He is a very clever and he got expelled from school because he had perfect test. The motorcycle boy is Rusty-James's older brother. In the end we found out that the motorcycle boy liked animals.

The message of the book is to stop fight not to fight more. The author writes the book because she wanted to tell the reader that humans most stop fighting. It's not a solution to fight it just get harder, that's why we need to communicate more. I think that's why the author wrote the book.

In the end did the motorcycle boy break in into a pet store and Rusty-James was with him. Rusty-James tried to talk to the motorcycle boy but he didn't answer. Rusty-James was so scared that he started to cry for the first time as long as he could remember. The motorcycle boy let out all the animals and when he was on his way to the river did Rusty-James hear the siren. When rusty-James gets out of the pet store he saw that the motorcycle boy was dyeing because a policeman shot him. Then Rusty-James started to see gray, black and white and didn't hear anything. But after a time Rusty-James could see colors and hear again. After a couple of years Steve and Rusty-James meet again and started to talk to each. Steve wanted to eat dinner and talk about the old days but Rusty-James didn't want to see him.

I expected that Rusty-James would die because he often fined himself in a fight. I didn't expect that the motorcycle boy would die, because he often "saves" his life and save him from trouble. I think that the book has still a good end. If I would write the end I would write that Rusty-James would die or he would become like his father. He could also become colour-blind and deaf like his older brother.

I think that the book is good but it is little boring. The b...
