For the bravest YA thriller enthusiasts, Sadie is a complicated puzzle waiting to be solved. Yet, it is Summer’s incredible writing style in the book as she explores dark themes that remain in a reader’s memories. Sadie does come with a trigger warning for pedophilia, sexual abuse, and other violent topics discussed. The framing device through two main narrators makes Sadie an endless page-turner as readers desperately wait for the tense climax. Sadie may be Summer’s best work so far in YA, where a young lady and a podcaster set out to solve the mystery of a deceased girl. The Weight of Blood has drawn comparisons to the gripping dark novels of Gillian Flynn and Daniel Woodrell and continues to be crowned a riveting thriller by reviewers. McHugh’sgrit-lit book carries a tense atmosphere, split timelines, and multiple narratives. The story follows Lucy in Henbane, where she finds herself alone, abused, and haunted by the sudden disappearance of her mother and friend. McHugh nosedives into the horrors of small-town myths and local traditions. If the mystery of Garner County kept you turning pages, you must add these curated thrillers to your reading list. Yet, the young adult protagonist, Tierney James, gave audiences an extraordinary tale of resilience and social autonomy most characters struggle to exude in this genre.
