The Real Lolita by Sarah Weinman

 I've had mixed results reading the books off the NPR's Book Concierge. I had read Lolita in high school and reading about the story behind the book seemed interesting. 
The book is an okay read if you can past the subject matter (for instance, I could only read this during daylight hours). There's not a lot of focus on the story and Weinman talks a lot about the lack of information surrounding the case. Instead, we get quite a bit of speculation. Which, to be fair, she does clearly state when it's happening.

Three stars
This book came out September 11th, 2018
