Diary of a US Prisoner, days 51-100 Kindle Edition

by Kyle Skinner (Author) Format: Kindle Edition

Here are the next fifty days. These entries are more introspective as I look deeper into my guilt. The prison gets wilder. There's a real chance people will read this section, dislike me, and end this run of entries. I left them unedited because there is a chance they are special. I'll wait to hear what you think.

I am absolutely outraged this wonderful book has NO other reviews. This needs to be fixed, and I am going to do everything I can to get it fixed.

"Stories will always be the only real magic in our lives."

This is so true. And sometimes - that magic is life-impacting.

I read a LOT. I average 250-300 books a year. I read nonfiction and fiction alike. Rarely does a book truly change me like these have. These books have forced me to re-evaluate some beliefs and ongoing actions in my life that, upon close inspection, are distasteful. And that is being kind to myself.

My best friend is a non-reader. She despises reading. I frequently discuss books I read with her, because I pity her for being a non-reader. I try to share some of the pleasure and joy I get from reading with her to make up for that pitiful aspect of her existence. These last few days she has been greatly amused, because I can't stop talking about these books. We have had a lot of interesting conversations regarding them - the most recent one at lunch today over shrimp and catfish at a local restaurant.

So there are two things that should automatically speak to any book-lover. These books are changing me as a person, and I cannot stop sharing what I am learning from reading them.

There is a promise of more books from this author's prison journal. I cannot wait for them.

Please, please buy these books. You will not regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Socrates was right.

He famously said that the unexamined life is not worth living. Really though, how many of us have the backbone to face the guy in the mirror and admit to what we've done and who we are? It's one of the most terrifying things that a person can do, yet it brings true freedom. Even to a prisoner.

Mr. Skinner's previous book covers days 1-50. It gives insight into not only the author, but into an environment which most of us will only ever experience through TV and movies. And SO MUCH of what you see on those is basically garbage. Mr. Skinner takes you, the reader, with him into the madness and boredom. It's a very worthwhile read. This second book, which covers days 51-100, becomes a journey towards catharsis. Lancing a boil can keep the body from becoming poisoned. Most of us would profit greatly from the process.

I'm looking forward to reading the next steps in this very personal, very human journey.

4.0 out of 5 stars Engrossing Story
Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2020
I read both of the diaries in this series. I think it was an open and honest monologue of what Kyle Skinner was going through both physically and emotionally. Prison life is not designed to be fun but I do think that we do little to help criminals come out of prison with anything positive. I am originally from Jackson, Michigan and have many relatives who worked in the prisons in varying roles from CO’s to Officers. They were all pretty cynical about prisoners in general but everyone’s story is different. I don’t think I could empathize, as he did, with some of his cellmates and the horrible crimes they committed but realize that when you have to live around these people every day you have to muster some humanity to survive it. It sounds like Kyle really wants to improve his life circumstances and I sincerely hope he does.
