Though Provoking
Okay, so it’s not so much about the final minutes, that is true, but nevertheless it is an interesting and thought provoking glimpse in to the author’s experience of the American criminal system and the politics and processes around capital punishment. I liked the description of her personal journey, her thoughts and feelings about some of the death row inmates she came to know and also the later chapters when she was treated so badly by her employers.

Judgemental
A lot of swearing, and not just when quoting those on death row. The most venomous tirades were over "Europeans" for having views that don't necessarily align with the pro-capital punishment views of the author. It's a shame because it could have been a good opportunity to give another viewpoint to those open minded enough to choose this book rather than ostracise them.

me, myself & I
could have been great, but female reporter kept going on about herself. You'd swear she's being executed.

Interesting...but lacking real oomph
This was an interesting enough narrative, giving some good insights into life on the other side of the wall for both staff and prisoners involved in the death system. Very well narrated - unobtrusive and non-distracting. It also was not too long; this latter point was a saving grace really as a minute longer and I’d have been tempted to use the word “boring”. As can be the downfall of these “ordinary joe in extraordinary situation” tales, there was too much meandering into autobiography. The minutiae of the rather mundane personal lives and inner workings of these people is rarely of interest; it’s the situation, the tale, that is the reason someone bought their story.

Interesting story but not told well
This is a very interesting premise but sadly the author thought it was all about her rather than the people she saw die. This was extremely frustrating. Fortunately, Larry FItzgerald had a lot to do with the narration, and he didn't make this young woman's mistake. Overall an ok read.
