If you love a good thriller/horror you may enjoy this one. Once I got into it I couldn't put it down. It's definitely a page-turning. I don't think this is a book for everyone. If you've heard "it's like The Silent Patient" it is NOT. This is not a "subtle" read. There are obviously some similarities in setting but they are absolutely NOT alike.

Synopsis:

Parker, a young and eager psychiatrist, has been hired at a mental hospital. He is quickly informed that The Patient, known simply as Joe, should be avoided at all cost. Well Parker is young, overly confident and a little too eager he believes he is the doctor to cure Joe. The story is told by Parker in a series of online post. What is wrong with Joe?

My Thoughts:

The book is extremely intriguing. I gave it 4 stars because the build up is amazing and captivating. However, once everything was revealed I felt disappointed. I don't know what I expected but I wasn't thrilled by the outcome. Without spoiling the book, I'll just say I really wanted more for Joe.
