A List of Cages

[Bo]

Overall, I enjoyed this book because it portrayed characters that were my age, so I could relate to them better. Also, the fact that this novel is based on real-life experiences made it even more heart-wrenching for me to read. The story is told from the perspectives of two young boys, Adam and Julian, whose involvement in each other’s lives has made a huge impact on how they view themselves and the world.
Both characters are wonderfully written and the secondary characters were also realistic. My only problem was that the author made Adam’s character a little bit too angelic because he is oblivious to the good deeds he does and everyone around him admires him a little too much.
