paradisewreck 's review for:

Sadie by Courtney Summers
5.0

TW: sexual assault, paedophilia, violence, mentioning of suicide

Wow... I'm overwhelmed. With emotions. With thoughts. With the way this book made the feel.
It was just .. wow. I don't know what to say.
This book left me speechless but wanting to talk about it. So. Much.
And! I really loved the writing style. Something about it really touched my heart.

Spoiler-ish (I guess): One thing I didn't enjoy was the end tho. I wanted to know! What happened?! We will never know and I really dislike those kind of books in which - I guess - you choose for yourself what happened.

I definitely want to pick up more books by Courtney Summers because I like the way she writes about stuff like this - serious stuff, sh*t stuff that actually happens every day to someone out there and she doesn't shy away from writing about it and for that she has my respect.

I think this is a book that will haunt me for a long time. And I want to believe in the more positive ending.
