How would you feel if you were charged with a crime, you never committed? how would you feel if they took 30 years of your life and made you spend it in a cell the size of a bathroom? what would you do if you were seen for the color of your skin rather than the facts? Today’s bestseller is a real-life memoir by Anthony Ray Hinton, a man who was falsely charged with two counts of capital murder in 1985 and spent 30 years on the death row before he was set free.

Throughout the book, Anthony tries to put his readers in the mindset he was in, as someone falsely accused, living in a tiny cell for thirty years. His message was that life and freedom can be found even in the darkest situations. “We are all slowly dying from our own fear, our minds killing us quicker than the state of Alabama ever could, I knew that if the mind could open, the heart will follow” The Sun Does Shine is an amazing way that sometimes all we need is hope,

for Henry that was the case even though his body was falsely prisoned, nobody took his soul and his humanity.
