Review of 'Halfway Home' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Halfway Home is about how formerly incarcerated people suffer further restrictions on their freedoms and ability to live a "straight" life after finishing their sentences. I was aware of much of this for reasons, but it's still an interesting book, and probably eye-opening for many. The content is a mixture of social sciences study and personal experience. Check it out. It'll get you thinking about reform vs punishment.
