Bonnie and Clyde: The Making of a Legend by Karen Blumenthal

3.0

I did not know much about Bonnie and Clyde going into this read. I was a bit shocked as some of the things discussed in the book were aimed at the YA crowd, but it was done tastefully and with great educational backing. The writing style though aimed at younger readers was not juvenile which I appreciated. I did feel the headings of the chapters with place and date while helpful did not match up at times with the timeline we were in. There were many instances where the timeline was well before the heading of the chapter was meant to take place. This caused a bit of confusion and I needed to go back a few times to place myself at the right time. I learned a lot and felt Karen Blumenthal did a wonderful job at the end explaining sources.
