Why this book?:

I'm pretty pro-life, and interested in prisoners rights, so a book about the forgiveness of a prisoner interested me.

Comments:

This was very preachy at the beginning.  I expected something, because I figured a book about forgiveness was going to touch on religion.  But this is not just Memoir.  It also falls under the subject "Religious",  and I guess that needs to be factored in.  Anyway, I ignored the preachiness and was interested in the story.  But it wasn't easy in those first chapters.  It improved once it got into the meat of the story.  And Anthony's perspective definitely helped.
