I enjoyed Alex Michaelides' debut novel, The Silent Patient. I didn't quite like his follow-up novel, The Maidens. But I can honestly say that The Fury was the worst of the three. I went into expecting a good or at least mediocre thriller. But the way that Michaelides chose to tell the story just did not work for me. The narrator of the novel was insufferable, annoying, irritating and constantly broke the fourth wall, talking to the reader. I hate when authors do that. I don't want to be in the story. I didn't like the tangents the narrator went on, for seemingly no reason. I didn't like the ending. Good thing it was short or I would have DNFed it. And thankfully short chapters, which I do enjoy. I was incredibly disappointed by this novel. Things didn't add up, things didn't make sense, and why is there the symbol for the evil eye on the cover? It comes up zero times in the book.
