I've been seeing this book everywhere lately so I finally decided to pick it up! I buddy read this one with Jacqueline and I am so shocked by how much I loved this. This is an adult thriller that follows from the POV of Theo Faber, a psychotherapist who is working on a special case in a psychiatric ward, his patient being Alicia Berenson who recently murdered her husband for no apparent reason and hasn't spoken since.

This book reminded me a lot of the tv show The Sinner because a woman randomly murders someone and you spend the majority of the story trying to understand why. I feel like the first 50 pages or so were hard to get into, but after that I literally could not put it down. I was so invested in the story and I finished it all in a day because I just had to know where it was going. And this book did not let me down - the ending had one of the best plot twists I've ever read. Like... I was freaking shook! It changed everything I thought I knew about the story and I was just so impressed, I didn't see it coming at all.

I gave this book five stars mainly because of that epic plot twist alone! But I just really enjoyed myself while reading this, and I thought this story was so well done.
