The Quarantine Book Club has been going strong for several months now, and as we're coming to a close, holiday activities are being confirmed and planned for the future and we're all very excited to convene in a few short days, via Zoom, to discuss the happenstances of Alex Michaelides' 'The Silent Patient.' Personally, I'd heard lots about this thriller through my GoodReads feed, and honestly the reviews were right, because good golly was this a book to be read. I read it so quickly, that realistically had to go back a few pages when the big twist showed itself, to make sure I was reading it right.
I, for one, always cheer for the female lead, no matter if she's pinned to be the antagonist. There's just something that dings in my head about women always being right... or "I'm with her.." I'm not sure, but I always root for the women in these books, and who would have known that I was right. Oh, snap. SPOILERS are definitely ahead. In an attempt to refresh my memory before Tuesday's meetings, I'm going to go ahead and do a little one-on-one workshopping with myself and answer the Discussion questions below... So if you haven't yet read this book, scroll away and check back later. I'd hate to ruin this plot for you!
