Summary
Winner of the 2019 Odyssey Award
Winner of the 2019 Audie Award for Young Adult Audiobook
An innovative audiobook production featuring more than 30 voices, Sadie explores the depth of a sister's love - poised to be the next story listeners won't be able to pause.
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.
Courtney Summers' Sadie is propulsive and harrowing and will keep listeners riveted until the last track.
Critic reviews
"A haunting, gut-wrenching, and relentlessly compelling read. Sadie grabs you and won't let you go until you've borne witness." (Veronica Roth, number-one New York Times best-selling author of Carve the Mark and the Divergent series)
"An electrifying thriller, taut as a bowstring. A coming-of-age tale, both gritty and sensitive. A poignant drama of love and loss. This - all this - is Sadie: a novel for readers of any age, and a character as indelible as a scar. Flat-out dazzling." (A.J. Finn, number-one New York Times best-selling author of The Woman in the Window)
"Courtney Summers's powerful story of love, neglect, abuse, and revenge is narrated with irresistible urgency by Rebecca Soler and Dan Bittner, along with an ensemble of supporting narrators...this is a production that will not be forgotten." (AudioFile Magazine, Earphones Award Winner)

Great audiobook, story itself a bit lacking.
I found the audiobook incredibly done, the cast was fantastic, yet the story somehow fell flat for me.

the plots ...I'm telling yall
this book was so good. all the plots were so...not that unpredictable but still shocks you somehow. also there are small "plots" I guess that if you're not careful you might miss. this book was darker than I thought, and after a while you understood why sadie was the way she was (I didn't like her at first). as the story progressed I never got around to liking her voice actor tho cause she was a bit dramatic, especially when she shouldnt have been (like describing how bright the stars were in the sky, it sounded more like a fight scene which was ????). I love how this was like a podcast, and the fact that everyone had different voice actors. it was a really fun experience

The production of this audiobook is mind blowing!
I love love love this audiobook. The narrators, ambient noises everything. They really put into great detail of all the sounds around the event in the book. You can hear the door opened, the mouse clicking when the character sending email, and much more. Overall, i am super impressed and highly recommends this audiobook.

Captivating
This Audible book was amazing. It pulled me in and this could have been a true story. I loved the characters and how you know where you stood with each one of them. And I love a book that leaves you on a cliff hanger. what has happened to Sadie??

Just brilliant
I thought at the beginning I’d struggle with the multi person narration but once I got into it it was just brilliant. The story gripping and performances very powerful. A highly recommended listen.

Dour and dark
I felt totally disconnected from Sadie as a narrator and the influencer plot line seemed dumped in there. I wish I returned this one.

A powerful story with a tear evoking ending
Not only is this audiobook extremely well produced, with fantastic narration and ambience throughout - it also tells a powerful story which could easily be true of millions of missing girls and women around the world. The author is not remiss in making clear this very important message, conveying the message in a delicate way which is thought-provoking but not in the least preaching. I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook, and would recommend it to anyone. Despite dealing with some very delicate issues, this proves to be an easy listen, which is testament to the well written story and the fantastic production of the audiobook.
