    I really like the view of the guards side of story.. I’ve been on the other side of this.. It’s true some guards just like treating cons like nothing.. It’s refreshing to see people treating people right..

    Very interesting and also very different. It was a fast read also. The part with the inmate cook, was pretty gross. Could never handle your job or not know if my husband's coming home. Will be reading your second set in the future.

    The diary is very interesting and entertaining. I especially enjoyed learning about prison life and the different aspects of the officers duties. Also found the writing to be cogent and authentic. Would recommend this series to anyone who would like a first hand account of life inside a maximum security prison.

    I thoroughly enjoyed these books because it was a true and factual trip by someone who seemed to enjoy his job, and explained some misconceptions.

    A true to life revelation of what goes on behind those walls. You can almost expect what you read. Lots of repetition.

    It is interesting reading. Not many people realize or understand what a dangerous job working in a jail or prison is. Thanks for the insight.

    3.0 out of 5 stars REVIEW
    Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2021
    Verified Purchase
    In my review of book one I likened it to a school report about what when did on vacation. On my first day of vacation I did this - on my second day of vacation I did that. That synopsis still holds for me.

    Since my taste runs more to the blood, guts and horror variety I would recommend this series be read by the faint of heart as I found it to be more fitting in that category.

    That being said, I am thinking about looking into Simon's other series hoping they are a little more, shall I say, involved.

    I read all your prison stories, all 12 in 12 days, what a wake up call, really enjoyed, especially when you ended some books with "today was a good day'. Stay safe, keep writing, am praying for you and your family and a big thank you for all you do. From a fan in the USA.

    It's not often I write reviews for the books I read but I had to for this. What a great read! I couldn't put it down. It's so well written with so many tales from the inside. Absolutely deserves 5 stars and I can't wait to get stuck in to the next 6 months!! A fellow DT addict as well ..all things serve the beam S King jr 😊

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 11, 2020

    I really enjoyed these prion diaries.
    After watching a show called 60 days in, it shown the similarities between prisons.
    It’s scary stuff & I do feel that guards/wardens do have their work cut out dealing with red tape etc.

    The only gripe I have with these book was the end of every day ending with a good or bad day.
    After a few pages it got annoying & I learnt to ignore it half way through the book.
    Maybe on certain days it could have been necessary but not daily.

    I look forward to Simon’s other work.
