Interesting read as a world I know nothing about..addiction, jail, competitive sports, eating disorders. I wish she had spoken more about her relationship with her parents as they seemed to stick with her.

This book is a must read for anyone who wants to learn more about the broken prison system in the US. Blakinger's testimony is powerful, direct, and well-written, and she enhances it with information from her reporting and that of others, confronting her privilege as a white woman whose family has money in a system that is entirely, but not uniformly, cruel.
