Again I found this at my local Goodwill. I was again drawn by the cover art and the title. I read the back and put it back on the shelf. I continued looking at other books and then decided to look at it again. It was a mystery book, something I've been more into lately, and again had the promise of music. For $1.00, why not?
I'm sure glad I did. I LOVED the book. I started reading it at about 9pm last night and finally had to stop at mid-night. I finished the rest of the book on my lunch hour. It was a quick read, but it didn't leave me lacking anything. It's a Christian book, something I wasn't aware of but was pleasantly surprised by. Sadie, wife of Troy and the mother of 5 kids finds out that Ally, a local 9 year old girl goes missing. With a murder of another young girl only a few months before, Ally's disappearance has everyone on edge. Could Troy have anything to do with it? Or maybe Ally's own parents?
One of the things I loved most about the book, is that Sadie wrestles with her faith. She questions God, questions her husband, and herself. It shows a good depth of human emotion and how we can sometimes deceive ourselves into a different reality than is actually there.
Sadie's Song grips your heart from the very beginning and doesn't let go.
