About this ebook
From the author of The Outsiders: "Immediate and gripping" tales of two boys whose lives diverge in dramatic ways after a shared childhood tragedy ( School Library Journal).
Terry and Mike were cousins who were as close as cousins could be—more like twin brothers, really. They thought they were invincible and that the happy times would last forever, until the day their fathers headed off for their annual deer-hunting trip. That was when everything started to change, and their paths went in very different directions.
Years later, another fateful event will send one of them to prison—and the other to a bartending job in Oklahoma—while the prospect of an eventual reunion looms . . .
From the award-winning author of That Was Then, This Is Now and Rumble Fish, " Some of Tim's Stories is a compact set of vignettes" full of "sharp, concise observation" ( The New York Times).

About the author
S.E. Hinton is one of the most popular and best known writers of young adult fiction. Her books have been taught in some schools, and banned from others. Her novels changed the way people look at young adult literature.
Hinton was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma. She has always enjoyed reading but wasn't satisfied with the literature that was being written for young adults, which influenced her to write novels like The Outsiders. Once published, The Outsiders gave her a lot of publicity and fame, and also a lot of pressure. Hinton was becoming known as "The Voice of the Youth" among other titles. This kind of pressure and publicity resulted in a three year long writer's block.
