(sobs into my pillow)
the older I get the more shocked I am that such an excellent male love interest for a woman came from a book almost exclusively about men. Louis Sachar wrote marginalized male characters for young boys to learn from, but he also wrote great female characters? like how often do you get both? The most powerful characters in the story are all women who make their own decisions and control the destinies of everyone around them, right up to the female lawyer
holes remains wonderful because it makes anyone who has spent life being belittled and ignored feel like they are important in the grand scheme of things
