Sadie had my heart pounding in my throat the entire time. It was heartbreaking and intense and delivered in a beautiful, fresh format. I rented Sadie from the library, but I've put it on my "to-buy" list, because I'm definitely going to be rereading it.

The ending of this book left me staring blankly at my wall for 15 minutes, uncertain of who I was anymore.

Oh my god. I... I’m in awe. I changed between the audiobook and ebook and both are absolutely spectacular. Adding a full cast and making the podcast itself... absolutely stellar work!

Now for the story itself. It was absolutely horrifying. It was gripping, nail biting, stomach churning and heartbreaking.

I feel like I know the answer to Sadie’s whereabouts but... I have hope. A small glimmer of hope that the kid made it out okay.

One of my top reads this year! Beautiful, amazing, consuming, and so intriguing. The writing, the characters, the way the story was told was all on point. I can't rave enough about this book.
