Finished the Maidens! I was thrilled about finding my first 5-star read of the year, only to find out I’m like the only person on Storygraph that loved it lol. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect book: dark acadmeia meets Greek mythology meets psychology. Excited to read the Silent Patient next ☕️

*the silent patient*
Author: Alex Michaelides
Genre: Thriller
Rating: 4.5 ⭐
From the very beginning of this book, I was hooked. I found myself so wrapped up in the story, invested in unraveling the mystery behind why Alicia murdered her husband.
Michaelides does an excellent job in creating a story filled with things and characters that are meant to keep you guessing.
Written in five parts with very short chapters, this made for one fast read that was hard to put down. It's so easy to burn through a lot of pages when you think,
"Well this chapter has 3 pages, I can keep going." And the twist? That twist? I found myself continuously changing my theories as more and more details surfaced, and I truly didn't see that twist coming until it was right under my nose.
Favorite dialogue:
*“Choosing a lover is a lot like choosing a therapist. We need to ask ourselves, is this someone who will be honest with me, listen to criticism, admit making mistakes, and not promise the impossible?”*

Need the professor from the maidens and the professor from the secret history to meet. I just need to know what would happen.

“You know, Theo, one of the hardest things to admit is that we weren't loved when we needed it most. It's a terrible feeling, the pain of not being loved.”

The Fury by Alex Michaelides
“This is a tale of a murder. Or maybe that’s not quite true. At its heart it’s a love story, isn’t it?”

"Once you name something, it stops you seeing the whole of it, or why it matters. You focus on the word, which is just the tiniest part, really, the tip of an iceberg.” - The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides.

"Somehow, grasping at vanishing snowflakes is like grasping at happiness — an act of possession which instantly gives way to nothing."

Słowo "psychoterapeuta" pochodzi, jak pani wie, od greckiego psyche, czyli "dusza", i therapeia, czyli "uzdrowienie". Jest pani uzdrawiaczką dusz? Uleczy pani moją?
