Book Review of
27 Summers

Lynn's Review

27 Summers by Ronald Oliver is a memoir published in 2023.

This is a memoir about Ronald Oliver’s twenty-seven years in prison and how God changed his life. 

This is a story of forgiveness. It reminds you of the power of God’s work in life and how God can work in the lives of the most unexpected people. 

In this memoir, Ronald Olives shares an honest look into his life growing up on the streets of New Orleans, his life in Angola prison, and how God worked in his life to change him. 

I am not sure where I heard about this book. I think it was from a Christian book review, but I am so glad I read it. 

I am sure I would not agree with everything Ronald Oliver believes theology-wise, but his story is an amazing story of God working in someone’s life. If you love Christian memoirs, this one is well worth reading.
