Ugh I thought this book was such a letdown! The Silent Patient was amazing so I was expecting great things from this book, but I think that was part of the problem. The book also weirdly kept saying over and over what an incredible story you were about to hear. Then no incredible or twisty story ever came.
It started out as a murder mystery, there were lots of characters to keep track of and it was hard to get invested in any of them. Some people seemed interesting but then we moved onto the next and didn't delve too deeply into any of their stories.
The book picks up a little in the middle and then the first twist is that the story isn't what it seems. Suddenly we find out some more information that wasn't disclosed and suddenly it's a different story. It wasn't that big of a revelation or twist. The final section of the book did pickup speed and became a bit more interesting but by that point I just didn't really care too much. I couldn't connect with any of the characters and didnt know whose side I was supposed to be on. It was hard to get a read on who was good, who was bad, who was tricking whom.
As others have said there was also a huge spoiler for The Silent Patient in the Epilogue so this book is not advisable to read unless you have already read that one. Though, if you have read The Silent Patient I think The Fury will be a bit of a letdown.
Thanks to NetGalley and Celadon books for an advanced copy of this novel to read and review.
