Sadie ya book5/23/2023 ![]() ![]() Sadie’s mom and Keith break up after he has a chance to turn his attention to young Mattie. Why didn’t she tell her mother? Keith said he’d move on to Mattie if she didn’t keep her mouth shut. In particular, there’s Keith, as he is now calling himself, who poses as a God-fearing stand up guy when he is actually a violent pedophile who has put the moves on Sadie since she was a little girl. Sadie’s mother is a deadbeat runaround-alcohol, drugs, party girl, shunning responsibility for her young daughters while bringing a long list of men home and oblivious to what’s going on. I’m going to steal the light from his eyes…” The story with the truth of the situation unfolds slowly. She overcomes a myriad of obstacles to find him. Sadie is determined to hunt this guy down and pierce his side with a switch blade. Sadie’s thirteen year old sister, Mattie, has been murdered and Sadie knows who did it. ![]() The story unfolds in alternating objective pod cast format and the contrasting first person account as told by the main character, Sadie, a nineteen year old troubled girl living in a trailer park in Cold Creek, Colorado, population 800. The book is half pod cast and half novel. Holy Moly! This story is gut-wrenching like a punch in the heart when you least expect it. This book is an important read for women with children at home. ![]() Book Review: Sadie by Courtney Summers (2018) YA) 5 Stars ***** ![]()
