John,

It’s that time of year again — the gym is full, everyone’s on a health kick, we’re hearing “new year, new me!”

We know that at the top of a lot of people’s lists of goals for the year is to read more, so we thought we’d help out with that by putting together a reading list of our own.

From deeply moving personal storytelling to thought-provoking research, these nine recent books are our must-reads for those looking to deepen their understanding of wrongful conviction, its causes, and how to advance justice — check them out now.

With these books, you’ll hear from criminal legal experts and those who’ve been directly impacted by our unjust systems. So if you want to read more in 2023, this is a great place to start.

Thanks, and happy reading,

The Innocence Project Team
