I lost my book Black Wind so I started to read Holes by Louis Sachar. The book was written to target a younger audience and this made it a slightly more boring read. I could see all of the coming from a long ways away. This made the book a slower read because it didn't hold my attention and I quit reading several times and picked it up later. I did finish the book but it seemed to have a very picture perfect ending that made it kind of unbelievable. Why would the curse be lifted just because he found a suit case that belonged to his great great grandfather? I also wonder what happened to Zero. After they get out of the camp he just disappears even though Stanley and Zero are best friends and Zero has no one else. Where does he go? I probably would have enjoyed this book a lot more if I would have read it like ten years ago but reading it now I found it very boring and terribly predictable.
