Holes

This book by Louis Sachar is a marvel of young readers' literature in so many ways, but - and I hate that I have to do this, but I do - it's not as good as the film for two simple reasons:

  1. The soundtrack
  2. Shia Labeouf
And that is all I have to say about this book, other than that obviously it's a great read, with a really fun plot and satisfying ending, with a pretty interesting set of themes and one of my favourite side-characters from any kids' novel in the hero that is Zero.
