After loving The Silent Patient then seeing all the hype on this one, I was a little worried about reading it, but I loved it. The story is primarily told in third person from the POV of Mariana with a few interspersed letters/diary entries from an unknown person. It has six parts with very short chapters. The short chapters left me wanting to read just one more until I realized it was midnight. There were several eerie characters for suspects in addition to Fosca, and I have to admit I hadn’t figured out which one was the killer right up to the “gotcha moment” that Michaelides previously pulled on me. Oh! oh, ohhhhhh….was my response. And now I have to go back and read parts again to figure out what I was thinking to have missed this one even when I knew it had to be coming. I will definitely be reading more by this author. He is fast becoming a favorite!
