I have heard really good things about Sadie, and in particular the audiobook... Sadly my library doesn't seem to have the audio, and I definitely feel like that is the format to go with this book. Great to hear you enjoyed it, especially as the genre is a little outside your comfort zone.

I liked it a lot too, though now I almost wish I'd listened to it, because I bet it makes the podcast part extra fabulous! I wholly agree with you about the focus on the victim, not the murderer. And I love love love that you took a picture of your friends' vandalism hahha. I really hope it doesn't go away, tbh.

I will forego the audiobook, though, because I don't like dramatized books. I bought the audio dramatization of Neverwhere and the sound effects drove me crazy.

The format of this story really lent itself to audio. I remember feeling angry and sad, when I finished this book. It was quite dark for me, but so well written.

One excellent crime novel I recently read, which focused on the townspeople where a girl had vanished, was Reservoir 13 by Jon McGregor.Stephanie Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16071958445763105060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193309628838073849.post-27383077069541483342019-11-22T10:03:49.672-07:002019-11-22T10:03:49.672-07:00I love this idea!

Also our falls are usually pretty ugly around here sadly. It's just too hot all the time. This year though we've gotten some colds snaps and the leaves have changed color nicely!

Summer can be torture, but winter is worse, I think. Either way, your walk looks really nice, and I'm glad you got to enjoy Sadie during it. (Also, 6.4 kms is pretty freaking good!) I'm happy you enjoyed Sadie - I adored the book, and I'd love to reread it as an audio, because I originally read the print copy.

The neighborhood I walk around in during my lunch breaks has so many beautiful trees that have been turning so many colors and leaving seas of leaves <i>everywhere</i> (it's almost difficult to walk through, but I don't mind!). I've also heard so many good things about the Sadie audiobook, it really does sound like a great one and I wonder if I'd enjoy it. I think I may have to look into it and find a good time to listen to it. :) Also, the 'vandalism' from your friends is so neat! Sad they might be tearing it up, but I'm glad you got a picture for memory. Jordan @ForeverLostinLiteraturehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15231807884697678173noreply@blogger.com
