The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life, Freedom, and Justice

Simply mind-blowing to read this book and know this happened during my lifetime. A powerful story of perseverance and will. It was tough to read at times, but worth the push.

Heartbreaking story about unfairness and loss, as well as a heartwarming story about true friendship and perseverance.

4.5 ⭐️ OMG WTF a must read memoir about the INjustice system. Half a point off for repetition in writing; could have been shorter and told same story.

Hands down one of the best books I have ever read! I read a lot written by prisoners and about true crime and this is by far the best one yet. It really makes you think about how we are prob wrong if we are defining a person by the worst act they have committed. As he said we are all guilty of something.
Certainly I agree that no human has the right to take another humans life. The death penalty will
Only cause more innocent people to suffer even if they murder a guilty man, what about that mans family who have done nothing wrong, then they suffer alongside the murder victim. Evil doesn’t breed good no more than good breeds evil.
I cannot sing the praises of this book enough. How ray kept his sanity I will never grasp. Lester is certainly one of the rarest men to walk this earth. Friends like that barely exist in this entire world.
