Who doesn’t love HARRY POTTER?? Impossible thing, what i am asking... but at first I also didn’t like them because I never seen it or read it.... 💫💫💫 Everyone is so mad at its back that to stay unique I didn’t touched that book as it’s tge trending one and I don’t believe in trending and changing fast to faster of things.... ❄️❄️❄️ Once when I checked secretly from my friends that what’s in this... it’s like i loved it but i showed no I didn’t like a bit of it.... everyone shocked and thought i must be a rude or bad person to be unliking it.... ⚡️⚡️⚡️ But i use to get alone i watched repeatedly that movie and continuously read the books of harry and imagined his life.... My younger sister, i think is a diehard fan of him... i never seen a person like that till date.... she watch everyday, each and every movie of it!!!😅😅😅 I never knew what extra they ll show in the next🙄🙄😂😂😂 🌊🌊🌊 . . . #bookstagram #book #harrypotter #jkrowling #bookmadness #trends #talkoftrends #oldbook #lovetoread #reading #readingmore #thisyear #bookworm https://www.instagram.com/p/BwzmOyBB3ND/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18n418bqot14x

Sadie by Courtney Summers
Tumblr media
A missing girl on a journey of revenge. A Serial―like podcast following the clues she's left behind. And an ending you won't be able to stop talking about.
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.
CW: sexual abuse, pedophilia, violence, drug abuse, death/murder
When 13-year old Mattie is found murdered, her older sister, 19-year old Sadie disappears. On one hand, we have the story told from the point of view of West McCray who has been hired to find Sadie, sort of. McCray hosts a podcast and is doing a series called The Girls which focuses on Mattie and Sadie and what happened to them. On the other hand, we have the story from Sadie’s point of view. She is not missing; but has left to find her sister’s murderer.
I’m not sure how I feel about this book. I found Sadie to be a really unlikable character so I had a hard time caring about her journey. That being said, the set up of the book was really great. I love the back and forth between the podcast and the story. I listened to this on audio and it was done with a full cast which was amazing. I love the fact that the main character, Sadie, has a stutter. It only happens when she speaks to others so her inner monologue doesn’t have the stutter. She speaks about how frustrating it is when she has to speak aloud because no one takes her seriously. I love that. We don’t often see a character with a stutter. It was done very well on audio as well.
I’m gonna go with 4 stars.
Courtney Summers is the bestselling author of several novels.

It’s World Book Day! I adore reading, I have since being a child and I read a lot. I read far more than I do watch TV and I love my Kindle Unlimited subscription. I also love audiobooks too, nothing like curling up in bed and having someone read to you ♥️ Stories We Never Told by Sonja Yoerg was the last book I finished and I really enjoyed it. I’m not a snob when it comes to books, I used to read pretty much crime/murder type stories but I struggle with those a bit now, so I do read a lot of cheesy romances, they’re a bit more easy reading and the body count is generally lower...😬 I don’t read “the classics” Shakespeare bores me and Charles Dickens is too depressing. For me whatever you read is great whether it’s War and Peace & Anna Karenina or SEALS of Honor 😂 as long as you read and enjoy it that’s the main thing #books #worldbookday #worldbookday2021 #ilovereading #kindleunlimited #bookmad #readingismyhappyplace #bookstagram #booksbooksbooks #booksbooksandmorebooks #addictedtobooks (at Witney, Oxfordshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CL_yUivHGNT/?igshid=skcztfjq7rfa
