It kind of gave me good girls guide to murder vibes with the murder and podcast elements. I thought that the dual perspectives was an interesting way to write the story but I really enjoyed it

Very good book! 
I highly recommend that you listen to the audiobook version of this story. It has great sound design and has multiple voice actors to add to the story. 

It’s absolutely heartbreaking reading about Sadie and her life and what she goes through. It’s amazing and highly recommended. 
It has very dark themes so keep that in mind.
