A hyped up book that was worth the hype! Alicia Berenson killed her husband… or did she? Michaelides affords the reader a look into the mind of Alicia’s psychotherapist responsible for her treatment following her husband’s murder. I don’t have much to say in my review; it was just so twisty and good. There were two separate storylines and I loved how everything came together in the end. If you enjoy psychological thrillers, this is a must read.
