This was a fun sequel to Holes! I liked that we got to explore not only Armpit, who's a pretty underutilized character in Holes, but also what the boys did after leaving Camp Green Lake. There's some suspense that I personally felt was a bit unrealistic, but it was a fun book nonetheless!

Not nearly as good as the first in the series...
