Review Detail

I enjoyed the book holes. Holes has lots of interesting things to keep me hooked, like the backstories. The whole idea that Zero was actually a Zeroni is really cool, not to mention the fact that I think it's funny that Stanley Yelnats is his name. (Same forwards and backwards.) My only problem with the book was I felt there was a lack of character personality. Every character seemed to talk the same, think the same way, etc. The only difference I could detect was Zero was quiet and Stanley stood up for him, while the rest of the boys went on bullying him. Other than that, I couldn't detect much other personality.
