Holes by Louis Sachar
10/10
What a lovely book. It is aimed at 'young adults' so I thought 'that's me!' and picked it up. I've read it in 2 days, which is always a bonus because you feel like you are in the world of the book with the characters. When it takes a fortnight or more to read a book, interrupted by all kinds of other bits of living, you feel more disconnected.
Where was I?
Ah yes - a lovely book. We go with Stanley to a camp, and meet some weird and wonderful characters. We get to know Stanley better, and we have an adventure with him. It is a heart-warming book, full of optimism about the human condition, I think. I'm not saying anything else. I don't want to spoil it. But if you go on this adventure with him, take your sun screen and a guide for identifying lizards.
