Couldn't even finish...
Okay, I've read The Outsiders and That Was Then, This is Now, and I loved both, so I'm definitely not against S.E.Hinton. However, I tried reading both this book and Tex, and I had to stop because of the amounts of swearing. Within the first twenty pages of this book, there had been six or seven swear words. Tex wasn't as bad, but still high. I can't tell you anything else, other than I really wanted to read them but felt dirty after the first few pages. Proceed at your own risk! I highly recommend Outsiders and That Was Then, This is now (See my reviews for info)

Great book with a little violance.
Rumble is one of my favorite books ever. it is really good and is, a little violant. that is my only concern. I think oter then that, it's fine. It's no worse then Hinton's The Outsiders. If you feel so, please respond to my review, I want to know what you think of it, agree, disagree, tell me! It's a wonderful book, but it makes you feel kind of crazy if you read it for to long of time. And tell me what you think! I need it for a progect!!

Easy read, advanced message
Good book as long as it is followed up with some good discussion. The positive messages are hidden in resolution of the plot. It becomes more of an example of what not to do.

a good freshman reader
Rusty-James’s only direction in life is to be exactly like his brother, Motorcycle Boy. Even though all his brother does is drift thoughtlessly through life. Rusty-James is stuck seemingly for the rest of his life in a crummy neighborhood because he refuses to rely on anything but his physical strength.
