I LOVED THIS BOOK!!
I bounced between the audio-book and the physical copy. The podcast aspect of this novel is amazing, perfect for anyone who enjoys the format. It is being compared to Serial when I think it plays more like S-Town, for those who care. I loved that the chapters of the podcast were followed by Sadie's narrative answering all the questions the podcast posed.
It has to be said, this book had one of the greatest endings. Extremely fitting, and nothing short of perfect.
