A review by danys_reads
The Eighth Girl by Maxine Mei-Fung Chung

3.0

2.5 realistically. This book was fine, maybe disadvantaged because I read Catriona Ward's novel about DID recently which was one of my favourite reads of the year and this book is also about DID and couldnt get out from under my comparisons which made figuring out the twist very easy. My biggest issue with this book, however, is how much Alexa's psychiatrist sexualises her. It's deeply unpleasant and makes his proclamation at the end that she should have trusted him feel really shallow and unearned.
