A review by thebookofalice
The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides

3.0

The pretence of this story was so intriguing to me. A woman has murdered her husband and hasn't spoken a word for 7 years. I was expecting big things. I had heard lots of brilliant reviews. The story was interesting enough and I found the change in perspectives interesting. The parallels between the therapist and patient kept me reading more.

However, I was able to guess the twist fairly early on which almost ruined the whole read for me.
