In The Library Found Me: How Books Rewrote My Life, Ricky Gaines shares a powerful and deeply personal story of transformation from inside the walls of incarceration. What begins as a search for escape through books becomes a journey of self-discovery and rebirth.
With raw honesty and insight, Gaines recounts how reading in the prison library awakened his mind, reshaped his identity, and ultimately led him to become a writer, publisher, and advocate for justice-impacted individuals.
This memoir is not just about surviving prison—it’s about rewriting your narrative, reclaiming your voice, and building something lasting from the ashes of your past. Through literature, Ricky didn’t just find knowledge—he found purpose, healing, and the courage to help others do the same.
