The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides

dark emotional mysterious sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

AMAZING plot twist, I didn't expect it. The only reason I didn't give this book 5 stars is because the ending was left kind of up in the air. Its not a completely frustrating thing but I do wish it was tied up. Overall I would highly suggest people read this book.

after some thinking and talking about it with a friend i lowered the rating a bit, i feel like the ending was hinted at and it was still a good plot twist in the end but i think i let myself be blinded to things because i spent so much time being upset about the cheating
