Five ways the main character is like you. I am grateful that I am nothing like the inmates in the interviews. Although, I understand that some of them had horrible circumstances, their drug usage was selfish, dangerous and illegal. In your own words what was the setting of the story. The prison had...
Compare two of the characters in this book. Cannot compare two addicts, one is just as bad as the other. The only thing that might be different is the type of drugs or the duration they were using it for. At the end of the book, do you feel hope for the characters? All of these people are in prison....

What I liked about the whole book. Liked some of the facts and the effort the author had put into the book. What I liked about the main character. All drug addicts. Very few got clean and stayed.

Cover. The cover was good. Showed drugs and money and bullets, pretty well sums it up.Content (overall theme, idea and setting). Didn't like how this subject was approached.
