Read this book as part of a book club, and this has been my favourite book so far. I completed a degree in criminology, so anything crime/prison/policing related is of a real interest to me. When you learn about this stuff at uni, it focuses on the government approach, and official reports and statistics. So I knew that the UK prison system was bad, but when you actually hear about what it is like for prisoners themselves, it adds a whole new dimension to your knowledge. Amazing book and such an interesting insight into prison and reform
