  • Week 31 (Behind Again): Small Steps

    I'm in Minnesota, and was just wandering around Grand Marais. Walked into Drury Lane bookshop, and saw Small Steps by Louis Sachar on the 50% off shelf. I flipped through it and saw "Armpit" and "X-Ray" and realized it must be some sort of sequel to Holes so I decided to buy it.

    Finished it in an afternoon. Couldn't quite remember the characters from Holes but everything felt like it was in the right place. The love angle was a bit of a stretch, but I can see how it worked into the story and it didn't bother me too much.

    Very cute, and it made me wonder what the other Camp Green Lake boys are up to. =P
