This is the first thriller book I’ve ever picked up that kept me reading and my first time using audio just to hear it during class. I’ve never felt so close and related to an older character than I to grief, love, long, and feeling of betrayal knowing nothing will never be enough nor the same ever again. Now I’ll go to my local library and hope to find The Silent Patient by Alex and hope to find more thrillers like this in the future.
