A review by araskov
Scar Island by Dan Gemeinhart

4.0

My oldest asked me to read this and described it to me in a way that reminded me a lot of Holes, which in some ways is true. It also reminded me of Lord of the Flies.

Collin was my absolute favorite character. Clever, kind, and resourceful, he navigates every hurdle with perseverance.

Jonathan, our main character, grows tremendously as a person and is able to admit things to himself that he couldn't in the beginning.

Loveable characters, as well as characters you will love to hate. I enjoyed this story highly and would recommend it to anyone who has enjoyed any books like Holes.
