I have no words!!!!!! Holy fucking shit balls, dude!!! If this doesn’t win thriller of the year in 2024, I will truly be shocked. The writing and narration were incredible. There were so many twists and turns; every time I thought I knew where the story was going, I was completely bamboozled. All of the characters had something to hide, which made it truly difficult for this reader to form hypotheses as to the central murder of the story. I could tell this must have been an extremely challenging book to write. Endless applause for Alex Michaelides! WOW.
Bonus: I haven’t read The Maidens yet, but there was a Silent Patient nugget at the end! How fun for Michaelides’s avid readers.
Book Description: A masterfully paced thriller about a reclusive ex–movie star and her famous friends whose spontaneous trip to a private Greek island is upended by a murder ― from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Silent Patient.
