Escape is a gun shooting, wall braking, guard sneaking true story. This book is a collection of different stories about groups of people, planning and escaping from prison. The prisoners are being told that no one can ever escape. But, they are determined to prove them wrong. Love this book. Even though people around me said I was reading a boys book, I didn’t care. I love it because; you can jump to whatever story interests you the most. You don’t have to read his book from beginning to end, you can read it from the middle to the front, or back to front or whatever way you want.

This book is really interesting because the author explains in detail how they escape from prisons that are said to be non-escapable. A really intelligent escape plan was made in one story where prisoners elude the prison, with about ten guards on duty. They were able to escape without being killed by one or more of the ten guards by the exit.

This book has left a huge impression on me. You can never say a prison is non-escapable until you have someone or a group of people desperate enough to show you how it’s done and most likely be successful. On a scale for one to ten I give this book a nine, I would recommend this book to people who are in the seventh through the ninth grade.
