I am a fan and Queen of reading everything True Crime! I have read a ton of Gregg Olsen's books and I am never disappointed. I have thoroughly enjoyed the Notorious USA series and slowly working my way through all of them. I have found this particular series to be very interesting as well as intriguing as the majority of the cases outlined in the series are not often heard of. (This is extraordinary coming from someone who knows a lot about true crime and cases, I've read and watched everything I can get my hands on).
The books in this series are short and do not go into a lot of detail. It spits the straight facts with a little bit of background history. Gregg does a great job painting the setting - you can picture yourself throughout this book in Kentucky. It cover multiple crimes: starting with the victim, the perpetrator, and the crime itself - needless to say you aren't left wanting more. "The Death of a Cheerleader" tells the stories of some very unusual crimes: a young woman disappearing from a beach and a neighbor observing the abduction through a telescope across the way, husband who murders his wife in cold blood but has to figure out where and how to get rid of her head, two people gone missing at the drive-in, a young girl disappearing from a sleepover and is no where to be found.
Of all the Notorious USA books I have read so far, this one is by far my favorite and the most intriguing. I cannot wait to continue on with this series, Gregg and Kevin leave me wanting more!
5/5 Stars - Very well written, no grammatical errors. I read this book on my Kindle. If you are interested in a quick read and enjoy true crime, I highly recommend picking up a copy for yourself today!
