How Leopold and Loeb Tried to Commit the Perfect Crime

Murder Among Friends

Zoe Smolen

This was such an engrossing read! I could not put it down. 

Leopold and Loeb occupied such an interesting cross-section of identities, and I think that's part of what makes the story so interesting. Additionally, it highlights issues that are still seen in our criminal justice system and that we're still reckoning with today - nearly 100 years later. 

As someone who consumes a decent amount of true crime content, you can tell this is toned down for a younger audience, but not so much that it becomes unappealing. Highly recommend for people looking for a less detailed true crime read.
