Interesting book, takes a vested interest in having the reader relate and sympathize with someone many people wouldn't usually bother with. Shows how the American justice system, even in cases where we identify with the victim, is incredibly and unfairly harsh. That being said it is very nice, like the author was worried that if they dug into the complexities of the story, the audience wouldn't be able to reach the correct emotional understanding of the story. Very fast and easy read.

I don’t remember much about this book, but I do remember it being a pretty effective read. It was one of the first memoirs I read that made me think about how much privilege I have as a white cis female in America. I really don’t have much to say about it, but if you’re looking for a memoir to educate yourself, here’s a great starting point.

Everyone who lives in Oakland, CA should read this book. I’m excited to teach it to my 9th graders.
