I absolutely loved Anna O. What a twisty turny psychological mystery. Anna O is a famous patient that has been in a “sleep” since murdering her 2 friends/business partners/house mates. Benedict is tasked with waking Anna up but he is embroiled in the case, feeling sympathy for Anna, and wanting to protect her from the trial that will happen when she wakes. We see the present and the past unfold simultaneously to unravel the mystery. I definitely picked some of the twists early on but I didn’t see that final end coming. What a well written psychological thriller. 

Thanks to Harper Collins Australia for a review copy.

It didn’t hit the way I wanted it too and it could have been 100 pages less in my humble opinion.

It was just okay. The "plot twist" wasn't that shocking but well written story. Could have been shorter.
