 Holes was an amazing book. I loved it so much! Its one of my favorite books that I can read over and over again. I couldn't put it down once I got started!
Really great book! And the movie is great too!
I love this book!! I read it in the 7th grade and fell in love with it. Not only that, but the movie is amazing too. Louis Sachar did a great job with this book.
This book is one of my favorite books to read. I was hooked on the book. Couldn't put it down.

 The only book I can ever remember reading and hating instantly. I think I've given it something like 4, possibly even 5 chances- heck, it was assigned reading in two of my otherwise wonderful middle-school english classes. My opinion has never changed... it's trash literature aimed for young people. I don't care if everyone else loves it, it's junk and I never will. (Harsh, I know... But it's truly a disgrace to literature!)
Worst book ever.

 I read this book I don't know how long ago, but I have loved it ever since!
Louis Sachar provides so many elements in this book; so many suprises that you don't see coming until they are right up on you!
A must read for young people who are a bit reluctant to read!

 So it may be for middle schoolers, but it's one of the BEST stories I've ever read. Funny--who but Sachar would give his main character the palindromic name Stanley Yelnats--and tightly wound, this keep you guessing until the last page has been flipped.

 The best part of this book is that it is geared for boys--a rare thing for this age group. It is an exciting adventure story that breaks stereotypes and celebrates friendship...highly recommended for boys 8-14.
The best part about this book is its appeal to boys...not an easy challenge to meet. It is an entertaining adventure story that breaks a lot of stereotypes. Highly recommended for boys on the edge of enjoying reading.
