A review by bantwalkers
Sadie by Courtney Summers

5.0

Courtney Summers writes tough books. They are raw, brutal, real, and messy. Sadie plays out as a true crime podcast, with all the binge-able obsession of Serial, In the Dark, or Dirty John. It is one of those stories that internet sleuths live for. What happened? How can we help? It is the stuff of message boards and Facebook posts. AS is frequently the case with Summers, this story feels real. The characters and the drama are right in front of our face. These are stories we see everyday. And we are placed into a reflection of the darkness that exists. It is without a doubt a story that will never leave me, as I wonder, "What happened to Sadie?"
