#BookReview: Side by Side (Bonnie #2) by @jennilwalsh #Giveaway

About the Book:

"A deftly researched, compassionate rendering of Bonnie Parker, one of the most fascinating women in recent history. With great empathy and skill Walsh portrays Bonnie's collision course with disaster, allowing us to ride shotgun all the way. And what a compelling ride it is!" - Ariel Lawhon, author of I Was Anastasia

Texas: 1931. It’s the height of the Great Depression, and Bonnie is miles from Clyde. He’s locked up, and she’s left waiting, their dreams of a life together dwindling every day.

When Clyde returns from prison damaged and distant, unable to keep a job, and dogged by the cops, Bonnie knows the law will soon come for him. But there’s only one road forward for her.

If the world won't give them their American Dream, they'll just have to take it.

"Compulsively readable, Walsh’s prose hooks you from the beginning as Bonnie and Clyde come alive for the reader, their exploits leaping off the page. Atmospheric, action-packed, and richly detailed, Side by Side will delight historical fiction fans." - Chanel Cleeton, author of Next Year in Havana

Notes and Opinions:  This book was amazing!  I love learning more about duo and I loved Becoming Bonnie so I was so excited to get this book two in the mail. Getting three copies of it was also great! Although this is a series this book is also a stand alone and I think that you do not have to read book one to understand book two. However, reading book one then book two will give you more of an indepth story. Since you will know where she came from.  This one centers around 1931 and is all about the struggles they have with money, their dreams, and surviving. I really enjoyed this story about their early life and even knowning how this was all going to end.
