I highly recommend this book if you are interested in reading stories that would keep you at the edge of your seat throughout the story. It is a psychological thriller that seizes the reader to read the pages until the very end. This is the book for you if you are intrigued with mind-blowing plot twists with a well-written story and narrative.
The Silent Patient is a must-read if you like books that are filled with mystery and suspense. This book is filled with a plot twist that one can never see coming. Michaelides‘ novel revolves around how both love and trauma are what mold a person and their actions. As said in the novel, “unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later, in uglier ways.”
So Good!!! Didn‘t expect the ending. I felt like I was watching Back to The Future in my mind as I was reading this. Great plot twist. Must read!!!! #fallread #cozyreading #bookclub #plottwist
pickOne of my new favorite books 📖 AMAZING ❤️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️5/5
pickAlicia Berenson shot her husband in the head five times. Since then, she hasn't spoken a single word.
pickThis was well written and had a great twist. It was an easy read. Definitely a page turner as I read it in 3 days. I don't often read so quickly but I just couldn't put it down
pickThis…wow… I finished the book last night and had to just sleep on it. The ending, the twist, I didn‘t see it coming. I sat, staring at the pages for a good twenty minutes, trying to wrap my head around what the heck I just read. And honestly, it was a pretty good read. There were times when I was disappointed by the writing style, but for the most part, it was good. I think. Idk. I‘m still confused if I liked it or not. Just read it yourself.
bailedI feel like I need to give this book another try… I‘ve heard so many good things, and I think it might‘ve been because I was doing the audiobook and the reader just had me so turned off from it for some reason, I just couldn‘t get into it.
pickA little late to this party. This was fantastic. Would love to see a mini-series or movie adaptation.
pick4.5 stars. Suspenseful, easy read. Psychological thriller
pickI had so many theories of what could have happened but what did was not one of them. I always wondered why they showed some of the parts they did but now it all makes sense. (ifykyk). I recommend and I'm so happy I have read a 5-star read!!

1. Yes! Yes! Yes!😊
2. Tagged.
3. Haruki Murakami. His magical realism storytelling always takes me where I least expect it. Same as David Lynch with his surreal movies. You never know what's happening, where the story is going and why. Love it.

I loved the audiobook for this one 🥰 #silentpatient #alexmichaelides #bookclub #coffeeshop #plantshop #shoplocal
pickThe plot 👌
The twist 🤩
IMMEDIATELY ENGROSSED as I started reading.
I came across this as I was browsing Blackwell's books online. I saw that it was a bestseller, and got it. The book delivered. 👏🏼 The last parts were the best.
Something special came in the mail 🥰 #thesilentpatient #alexmichaelides #breathless #amymcculloch #botm #bookofthemonth #bookclub
pickI literally can not say enough good things about or recommend this book enough. A psycho thriller in which a woman, Alicia, shoots her husband after ~6 years of marriage, and then goes silent for ~6 years following. Enter psychotherapist, Theo, to try to uncover why she went silent and try to get her to talk again. Twists and turns and many psychology components, absolutely a must read.
pickAmazing! I was blown away! I went into the book with little to no expectation...but i was completely hooked to the book from start to finish... Its fast paced and full of twists! Never saw the ending coming... Loved it...
pickRead it. That‘s all I can recommend. The characters are built in a way where you can feel the different emotions that are written. Yes this was a 10/10
Reading in bed for this teachers Christmas break 💆🏼♀️ I am already hooked and only 6 chapters in
This is my beloved house rabbit, Moxie Crimefighter, helping me with a reading challenge nearly 7 years ago.
First thing tomorrow morning, she goes in for oral surgery. She gets a little, bunny-sized gas mask, & they knock her out so they can file her teeth down. It should help with the pain she‘s been experiencing. The doctor is renowned in her field & very reassuring…but I‘m *incredibly* nervous.
Please send us love from your corner. 💞
pickThis book fit my reading mood exactly. I was annoyed at the male doctor trying to speak for and heal the voiceless woman but nevertheless I read compulsively til the end. #BOTM

pickI did not see that coming. Red herrings everywhere. I listened to the authors interview at the end and it was cool to hear how influenced he was by mythology. Good read if you like twisty whodunnits but not a psychological thriller, in my opinion. A solid mystery nonetheless.

Sitting outside on a beautiful morning having my coffee, listening to the birds sing, my boyfriend is working on drawing up someone‘s tattoo for the day and I‘m about to step into this that I have read so much about. Have a fabulous day 🐝🐛🌿🌻🍄
Couldn't be more excited to read these off one by one ?! It's undoubtedly one of the best purchases of my life! Sadly it has to wait for "one of us is lying"?
pickLoved this one! Right up my alley for vibe, storytelling, and setting. Can't wait to read The Maidens!
pickIt is more of a character study than a murder investigation. It's about what goes on inside the mind of the murderer and also the psychological effect of the events leading up to the murder. The brilliant plot twist. No matter how many murder mysteries you read, you wouldn't see this one coming. The last few pages tie up the novel so beautifully that you will find yourself flipping back to the pages to check if you have somehow missed some clues.
Tagged audiobook kept me company while I cleaned up my workspace and filed paperwork to wrap up this challenging school year. To all the Litsy teachers, instructional assistants, school administrators, OTs, PTs, SLPs, guidance counselors, school librarians, school nurses, and all the other essential school personnel I‘ve neglected to mention- thank you for your hard work and dedication. I hope you have an amazing summer!
