Reviews

I literally devoured this in one sitting!
⁣⁣⁣
The twists and turns are brilliant. The author does an incredible job telling us a story about a woman who is committed to a psychiatric hospital for the murder of her husband. No one knows why exactly; she’s never spoken a word since. ⁣⁣What secrets is she hiding? Did she really kill her husband? This book will keep you guessing until the very end! ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I can’t say much else without giving the story away, but what I can say is that I definitely enjoyed the book.

In summary, this is a great debut novel by Alex Michaelides and I look forward to reading more of his books in the future. ⁣⁣
