Sadie by Courtney Summers was an incredible journey into the mind of someone who is out to do whatever it takes to help the ones she loves, and maybe even the ones she doesn't even know. This novel is intense and dark, but will keep you wanting more. It is told in a unique way, with alternating viewpoints from Sadie herself, along with the narration of a podcast that is trying to track her down months after she has gone missing. It is a story about trauma, sisterly love, and the lengths we will go through to protect the ones we care most about. I can't recommend this one highly enough!

Sadie hasn't had an easy life. Growing up on her own, she's been
raising her sister Mattie in an isolated small town, trying her best to
provide a normal life and keep their heads above water.
But when
Mattie is found dead, Sadie's entire world crumbles. After a somewhat
botched police investigation, Sadie is determined to bring her sister's
killer to justice and hits the road following a few meager clues to find
him.
When West McCray―a radio personality working on a segment
about small, forgotten towns in America―overhears Sadie's story at a
local gas station, he becomes obsessed with finding the missing girl. He
starts his own podcast as he tracks Sadie's journey, trying to figure
out what happened, hoping to find her before it's too late.
Courtney Summers has written the breakout book of her career. Sadie is propulsive and harrowing and will keep you riveted until the last page.
