This book was written for kids. The back is marked “10 & up” — so you probably qualify, in a strict sense. (If you must know, I received this as a gift. I have yet to determine whether the giver thereby intended to make a statement about my intellectual or emotional maturity.)
That said, I’m surprised to admit that this is one of the most enjoyable books I’ve read this year. It’s a better page-turner than most of the thrillers and action/dramas I read… the characters as more purely drawn, with clearer intentions and motivations… and all the weird plot twists hook up in the end to make a very satisfying conclusion.
I heartily recommend this book to everyone who enjoys a good story. If you have young kids, this is a great book to share.
Holes is being made into a movie for release in 2003, starring Sigourney Weaver, Jon Voight, Henry Winkler, etc.
