What a fabulous book. An intricate story spanning decades. A likable protagonist who grows in a convincing way. Villains and danger and even buried treasure. What’s not to love? ( )
This novel truly holds up through time. I loved this book as a kid but haven’t read it for YEARS, and was pleasantly surprised to see it was just as good as I remember. The writing, characters, story- all excellent and highly re-readable. ( )
Stanley is under a curse all because of his great-great-grandfather being a thief. Stanley gets sent to a detention center, where he has to dig holes all day. The holes have to be exactly five feet wide and five feet deep. There are holes everywhere. Stanley thnks the boys at the detention center have to dig holes as a punishment. However, he soon learns that he has to dig holes because the warden is looking for something. What could it be? Read this story to find out the truth behind the holes in this dark tale about crime and punishment. ( )
I love Holes it's a classic for me. I read it again for the first time in a long time and I read it with my roommates, while we didn't say much about it, it was fun for me because people I know read a book I love. ( )

If you take a bad boy and make him dig a hole everyday in the hot sun, it will turn him into a good boy.
It was all because of his no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather.
But everyone makes mistakes. You may have done some bad things, but that doesn't mean you're a bad kid.
His muscles and hands weren’t the only parts of his body that had toughened over the past several weeks. His heart had hardened as well.
It felt good to walk in the shade of the two oak trees. Stanley wondered if this was how a condemned man felt on his way to the electric chair – appreciating all of the good things in life for the last time.
Stanley was thankful that there were no racial problems. X-Ray, Armpit, and Zero were black. He, Squid, and Zigzag were white. Magnet was Hispanic. On the lake, they were all the same reddish brown color – the color of dirt.
Things went wrong a lot. They always seemed to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
