A Ladder to the Sky
I read the first quarter of John Boyne's book "A Ladder to the Sky" and liked the subtlety he used when writing the interaction between the two main characters. The manipulation both of them used to further their individual agendas. The second quarter of Mr. Boyne's novel was no longer subtle therefore I couldn't read it any longer. I personally would recommend it to a certain select audience.

A Ladder to the Sky
Not a terrible read, but had trouble sticking with it. Once I reached the half-way point, had to put it aside. Sorry, but Maurice and his attempts to gain notoriety in the literary world could not hold my interest.
