While in Prison for a little over a year I read 137 books. As you can see in the list below, the books range from libertarian manifesto to novels about 18th century Africa. I purposely listed them here in the order that I read them. The first book listed was what I read on day one, and the last book listed was yet to be finished when I was finally released. If you follow the list you can see into my daily life inside, because what I was reading largely shaped how I was feeling.



Some books I read the whole series, though sometimes I had to stop because I didn’t have the next book. I would write to friends and family asking them for books, but most of my books came from people I didn’t even know! As an aside, thanks to all of you who sent care packages to me while I was away. It meant a lot to me, and helped to make my time pass much faster. I also got over 200 letters from people, largely unknown to me until that point. Thank you!



After finishing a book, I wrote it down and kept a list. Below I show a picture of each one and a list of the books that go with it. Feel free to ask my my opinion on certain books or how I was feeling while I was reading then.
