The Maidens by Alex Michaelides

4.0

Whelp, idk how I feel about this book. The references to the silent patient make me want to reread that one. Otherwise I’d have to say while it was a page turner I was kind of annoyed by Marianne, plus I never felt a real connection to any of the characters and Zoe was sus from the beginning. I guess 4 stars bc of the page turning ness and wanting to know what happened and points for the Ancient Greek tie ins. Buuut I feel like this book could have been way better. It’s kind of like the silent patient you either love it or hate but for me it’s just kind of meh. It’s ok, and was entertaining but I don’t think I’ll be like “you should read this book” to my friends.
