Is Outsiders a sad ending?

The book Outsiders by S.E. Hinton has a very sad ending. What do you think about it? Did it make you cry? Did you think it was a good ending?I personally think that the ending was very sad, and it made me cry. I didn't think it was a good ending, but I can see why the author chose to end the book the way she did.

Outsiders definitely has a sad ending.

SPOILERS AHEAD

Ponyboy dies at the end of the book, and his death is definitely sad. Ponyboy was a great character, and his death is a tragedy.

In addition, Soda and Darry also have a very sad ending. They are both left alone after Ponyboy dies, and they have to deal with the pain of losing him.

Overall, Outsiders is a very sad book.

No, Outsiders is not a sad ending. In fact, it's a pretty happy ending, considering that Ponyboy and Johnny are alive and together at the end. However, it is a bittersweet ending in that Dally is dead, and everything that Ponyboy and Johnny went through has changed them forever.
