Summary: Down Wid Da Hole's
Review: If you are looking for a book that is a laugh out loud type of story, this is not the book for you. I did not like this book at all. If I had a choice of reading this book or sticking my tongue to a freezing pole in the winter time, I would have to choose the pole. The reson I didn't like this book is because "Stanley" (the main character) was sent to this camp, "Holes", because he was accused of stealing a pair of shoes, when they had actually fallen from the sky. When in fact they had fallen from the sky through some weird coincidence explained later in the story. I thought that was a load, along with other hard to believe facts, making this book too far fetched for me. Thank you and good night. ~Jucie

Summary: Holes review
Review: If you want a good book, don't choose Holes by Louis Sacher. This book stinks. Cops have to know about what they do there. It's in the middle of a desert, people are going to wonder what they're doing there since there's no lake or grass. Also, how are the kids' moms going to send mail to them, and how do they send out mail without a mailman coming to get the mail? Fate plays too much of a big role in this book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: holes,not a good book to read
Review: I personally didn't like this book only beacause when Stanley was in the hole with the lizards, not one of them bit him. They say Sam's onion juice was the cure. That's not true. This book was not realistic. This would be good for children because the chapters were so short. The story didn't make sense until the end. Also, when they are left in the desert and up on the mountain for that long just eating old sploosh and drinking the juice, there is no way they could have survived. In my opinion this is not the book for me.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: holes
Review: In my opinion, I hate the book Holes because there isn't enough action in the book. All it talks about is the holes that Stanley and his friends have to dig because they got in trouble in school. When people asked me what book should they read I wouldn't tell them to read the book Holes. Some of the books I read I enjoy but not Holes.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Holes
Review: Holes was an extremely interesting book. I really liked how it held my interest throughtout the whole book and not just the beginning. I also liked how everything came together in the end. I found this book clever and creative,especally how the yellow spotted lizards,Stanley,Zero and their familys are all tied together. Louis Sachar did a really good job and I would recommend you buy it. Trust me it's worth it. This is a book that can really hold your interest.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: The book of the holes.....
Review: THE BOOK"HOLES" WAS AN "O.K BOOK. THE BOOK WAS FAKE IN SOME PARTS AND REALISTIC IN OTHER WAYS. PERSONALLY, I THOUGHT THIS BOOK WAS INTERESTING TO READ. IT CAPTURES THE READER TO THE SITUATION AND KEEPS YOU INTERESTED IN THE STORY. IF YOU LIKE BOOKS THAT YOU HAVE TO FINISH IN ONE DAY OR YOU'LL BE SO INTERSTED THIS IS THE BOOK YOU WANT TO READ.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Book Holes
Review: The book Holes is an incredible book. It is very inspiring and gave me a lot of hope. Stanley went into this situation hopeless and came out of it as a strong, healthy person. He showed strength and courage through this whole book, which I think was very inspirational. For someone to have to go through that and come out the way he and the other boys did was fabulous. I thought the friendship between Stanley and Zero was a great way to show that two totally different people could bond and have respect for each other as in the way these two have shown. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys non reality stories and has the heart and the time to sit down and read this book.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Holes
Review: I thought the book Holes was ok. There were some good parts and bad parts. Some of the good things in the story were, Stanley learned a lesson, he made a friend, he got in shape, and he saved a life. I also thought there were a lot of bad things in this story. Stanly had to go to Detention camp, he had to cover for the other boys like X-Ray and all the others. I wouldn't recommend this book beacuse it's an ok book but I would rather read a great book than an ok book.
