The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row

The Sun Does Shine by Anthony Ray Hinton was a great read. It was depressing and astonishing, but also eye-opening and fascinating. I could easily see why it has so many positive reviews. It’s the story of the 30 years that Hinton spent on death row, though he was innocent of the crime he was accused of committing. More than anything else, the pace at which the judicial systems works is unfathomable. And, of course, the ridiculousness of the system that would have convicted him in the first place goes without saying. If you have not read this already, grab it. You won’t regret having added it to your list.
