I have been waiting for the next masterpiece from Alex Michaelides for over two years now! His debut novel, The Silent Patient, is a book that left me reeling, and one that I suggest to anyone looking for a recommendation. I have to be honest, The Maidens was already on my list of most anticipated books of 2021 even without knowing what is was about. But after reading the synopsis, I know it’s going to be another gem! Counting down the days until publication day!
