ktcarlston 's review for:

All Rise for the Honorable Perry T. Cook by Leslie Connor

---

I read this book because on the cover it has Gary Schmidt (one of my FAVORITE authors) saying how great the book is. I don't know if I would go that far. A lot of it was way way way too simplistic about some of the realities of prison life. Additionally, there was one character, in particular, who was so incredibly one-dimensional. His personal life made ZERO sense with the way he behaved. It just bothered me. Overall, however, I'm not sad I read it.
