Review - Sadie by Courtney Summers



A missing girl on a journey of revenge and a Serial-like podcast following the clues she's left behind. 

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.

"I'm going to kill a man.
I'm going to steal the light from his eyes.
I want to watch it go out.
You aren't supposed to answer violence
with more violence but sometimes I think
violence is the only answer."

This book pressed every emotional button in me.

This was my first Courtney Summers book and I have to say, I will have her on my auto-buy from now on. Sadie never failed to hold my attention and it gave me all the feels. At times, the hairs on my arms stood on end as I followed West McCray in his search for Sadie. Other times, my stomach would tie in knots as I went with Sadie in her search to find the man responsible for hurting her sister.

This story is told in two alternating perspectives. One part is a podcast, The Girls, where West McCray tells the story of Sadie and Mattie. He shares his interviews with, not just Sadie's family, but those that Sadie met along the way to finding the one man she wants dead. The other part is told in Sadie's point of view as she travels Colorado in her hunt.

I want to thank Macmillan, Wednesday Books, and Courtney Summers for the advance readers' copy

New Release


Title: Southern Shade
Authors: Tich Brewster & Shalisha Cooper
Genre: Adult Paranormal Romance
Publisher: World Castle Publishing
Release Date: March 26, 2018


Desiree is a nurse at the children’s hospital. Being a work-a-holic, Desiree has no desire to hit the clubs after a grueling twelve-hour shift but after being persuaded by her best friend, she caves.

Dressed in cowboy boots, tight wranglers, and a cowboy hat, Caleb is the man of Desiree’s dreams. He’s handsome, gentlemanly, and sexy as hell. And has a killer secret. He’s a vampire.

Bodies turn up in the streets, drained of blood and missing hearts. The most intriguing part, carved on their foreheads is the Xavier symbol. A symbol Caleb has not seen in five hundred years.

When he learns that Drake Xavier has escaped purgatory, he fears for Desiree’s safety. In his six hundred years on this earth he’s never feared death. Now the fear of death grips his heart like a vise. Desiree is the only woman he has ever loved. The only woman he wants to spend an eternity with.





Life and death. Those two words mean very little to an immortal. With the gift of eternal life, we don’t dwell on such things. Death passes us by every minute of the day, taking mortals to their eternal resting place while it is nothing more than an afterthought for those of us gifted with immortality. 

I’d never given it much thought until now. Death never had a reason to be on my radar but as I stare into her eyes, those honey-brown eyes of a killer, I now know the fear that death brings. The universe has finally decided to show up and flip my world upside down. Now my heart is pounding, threatening to burst forth out of my chest. I beg death to leave, to run for the hills and let us be. 

Will she? 

Recognition shines in her eyes and for an instant I think she might. I believe she will have mercy on me and flee without claiming the life of the innocent…of the one I love. Then the storm rages overhead and I know that she won’t. She’s come to collect regardless of whether it’s right or wrong. 

Suddenly, the very thing that I cared nothing for becomes the very thing that terrifies me.
