The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides
5.0
" We’re all crazy, I believe, just in different ways"
Oh. My. Freaking. God.
This has to be the best psychological thriller that I have EVER read. I loved every part of it, but it ma not be a good choice for you, if you want to sleep at night. This book is absolutely unputdownable, and you WILL not be able to sleep at night, until and unless you have finished this book. I was up till 3 am in the morning when i had finally finished this book, it was SO good.
The story is basically about an artist, Alicia Berenson, she was 33 years old when she shot her husband, and now she just wouldn't speak about the murder, she wouldn't speak anything at all. The new psychotherapist at the hospital that she had been since the last 6 years, he was determined to find out what really happened to her.
I loved everything about this book. The way the story developed, how the psychotherapist's life resonated so much like Alicia's life, the way WE can't trust anyone throughout the book, how gripped I was to the book, I just loved it. Although I did suspect what had really happened with Alicia, but the twists and turns just made me not trust my suspicions, and made the book 110% more interesting. And I just loved the fact the it was Alicia who reveled her story and not somebody else.
If you love reading thriller book, this may be the one book for you. And if you like books, you will definitely love this book.
