A review by addisonpatrice
The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides

dark medium-paced

3.5

I listened to the audiobook, and it was definitely a chilling and unexpected story with engaging characters. However, with all of the suspense-building and various characters with odd motives around it left a lot of loose threads.
