My criticisms: At times it was not clear where the information was coming from--an interview? Something the prisoner had written? I also felt that more context was needed. The book jumps right into an interview with one of the convicts without much explanation, and I think a lot of information could have been woven in between the prisoners' stories which would have enhanced the book.

The book contained a lot of details about prison life, including violence, sex, and sexual assault. I would only recommend it to older teens due to this content.]]>
