Summary: My Review of Holes
Review: I thought the book Holes was great and wonderful but there were some ups and downs. The book was very suspenseful. The book was full of suprises. I love the way Sachar makes his quotes--
for example, "no-good-dirty-rotten..." or "I can fix that." I also liked how Sachar gave the characters their names, such as Twitch or Zero. Sachar would keep going back and forth in the book. Sachar would talk about this generation then talk about something else and then go back to the same generation. It would be like your mom always reminding you something every minute.I didn't like when he threw in characters and barely used them, and when things wouldn't make sense to me. Otherwise, I loved the book.

Summary: Holes Review
Review: I liked Holes a lot. It had many ups and downs. Some of the ups were towards the end of the book. Some of the downs were that many characters like Barf Bag and Twitch were not used much. I liked the way Sachar named the main character. The other characters also had funny nicknames. My favorite line was "no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather".

Summary: My Holes Review By TT
Review: I like the book Holes.I would read it again and even a second story.I like when Louis Sachar would take us into Kissin Kate Barlow and Sam`s world.I like when Zero and Stanley say that "Mary Lou would probably look good in a bathing suit."I also like when Mr.Sir would say,"You're not in Girl Scout Camp anymore".The ending gave me the chills and I hope I am never in that situation!-TT

Summary: My Review on Holes
Review: I liked the book HOLES because it was very suspenseful.You would always wonder what would happen next.It was great going though all the adventures. IT was really fun with all the surpises that you find out thoughout the book. When you read this story it is great to think about how everything has a purpose. My favorite quote is " This isn't girl scout camp". The setting of the camp was wonderful. It felt as if you were really going though the adventure. I didn't like some parts of the story. It got confusing when we went into Elya's world , to Kate's, and then back to Stanley's. I also didn't like how at the end of the story Sachar left us hanging at the end of our chairs. I want to know what happened. I mustly loved the story though. I thought the story had an amazing theme and everyone should read it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Best book I've read
Review: Holes was a great book but not from the start. Once Stanley is settled in Camp Green Lake, a camp for " bad boys," the book gets really good. This book has stories within stories within stories. It gets sort of confusing at some points in the story. The end of the book should keep you on the edge of your seat. There are some weak points in the story too like Sachar (the author) rushed some parts. Esspecialy at the end. This book has lots of characters and is a very exciting book. Anyone who reads this book should love it like I did. :-)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Holes
Review: I would say it was pretty good.It had good action and a lot of feeling into it.This book is about Stanley Yelnats and his adventure at Camp Green Lake.(Yelnats is Stanley backwards or in literary terms a palindrome)There are plenty of characters in Holes. Holes is a story within a story within a story. Sachar fills in a lot of detail when Stanley is at Camp Green Lake but
at the end Sachar puts a one and a half year gap at the end.
You eventually figure out some of the things that happen in the gap but not all of them.You don't have to worry about the ending the big gap is at chapter 50. I would have given this book a 5 but the ending just makes it more of a 4
i hope this review will give you an idea about Holes.

Summary: Extra! Extra! Read this HOLES review!
Review: HOLES is a big story, including three stories that equal a lot of characters, a lot of settings, and a lot of memories--good and bad! Sachar made the story so long but at the end, he stops us short!
There was a lot of good expressions, like "I can fix that" or "If only, if only..." or even "her head is as empty as a flower pot." I think that the book was not the best, but not the worst! I was always on the edge of my seat, but in the end, I realized that I was on the edge of my seat for no reason!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: mississippi the story of holes
Review: I would rate the book extreamly good .But the book had its strong and weak pionts.It was too confusing in the beginning and ended to quick at the end.It had good action parts that left you on the end of your seat.His style of writing was fasinating how he had there stories that all connected into one whole story.His way of writing and the discriptive words he used made you feel like you could under stand what the caracters felt and you were in the story.The expressions he used were cool look for as empty as a flower pot and i can fix that,also his no good dirty rotten great great grandfather.He had loads of caractersbut they were all cool.That is why i like holes.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: HOLES IS THE BEST!!!
Review: Holes was a great book with many intense moments. I love the characters and how they react with each other. Holes is a little hard because it is also a story within a story within a story so watch out for new characters. Watch out for how the characters change mentally and physically. Another way that Sachar writes is how he makes us close our eyes and picture a very deserted place with holes everywhere. Holes had many strong and weak points. How he goes into detail and how he wraps things up very quickly at the end. I think that Holes was interesting because a lot of people are related in a very small way no matter how small the relation was, even a boot.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: My Interesting Review
Review: I like HOLES because it describes many things in one. It had some-what of a lot of action and makes you keep thinking. But what I really didn't like was at the end they squashed too many things in at once and didn't sound that good. But I liked how there were stories coming in and out during the book. Also the characters in the book were funny, strange,and when they spoke it sounded like they were really speaking in real life.
