Review 69: Holes (Louis Sachar)

A modern classic. A tale of forbidden love, broken promises, and reaping consequences throughout generations. Ultimately, this story shows how friendship redeems the life and family of a social outcast. My only two critiques, 1)This story borders on propoganda vis a vis modern minded ethics, 2) Sometimes the events/coincidences strain the realm of probability, and require extreme forbearance.
