The Maidens by Alex Michaelides
5.0
dark emotional mysterious sad tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

What a book! I wasn’t the biggest lover of The Silent Patient, so going into this book, I didn’t know how it would go. But the mixture of Greek mythology, English academia, and fast paced mystery kept me engrossed. There were multiple characters I kept questioning on who was the murderer. I also thought I had guessed the ending but what brought it up to 5 stars was the fact I was super surprised by the ending. I definitely recommend!
