Sarah's take

I recommend *Sadie* because it powerfully intertwines grief, resilience, and the quest for justice through the lens of a fiercely determined sister. The dual narrative of Sadie's harrowing journey and the podcast investigation creates an intricate tapestry that not only pulls at your heartstrings but also challenges you to confront the complexities of loss and agency, making it perfect for readers who appreciate strong female protagonists and emotionally charged storytelling.
