The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides
4.75
challenging dark mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I really liked this book. I thought the twist at the end made sense (got the character wrong, but that the perp would be a character we knew right). I thought it could've been a bit more fleshed out, and the last part was a bit rushed, but otherwise it was a really good read. I saw that the author also wrote The Maiden, which I've seen, but haven't read yet. Will need to add that onto the list!
