There was not much dancing around with words before telling the story. One thing I absolutely loved instantly was how quickly the book sets you inside the world of the narrator. After all the hype and commendation with which she sold the book to me, I finally went ahead and ordered my own in paperback. I flew into the clean pages only knowing the premise of the story as my sister had begun reading it on her kindle a few weeks prior and couldn’t stop raving about a psychotherapist who scattered the pages with the ‘deepest’ quotes. Its been a couple of weeks since I read the last pages of The Silent Patient, and while usually, I try to review books as soon as I’m done with them and have placed them back on the bookshelf, life got in the way and this ended up living in the draft folder for a lot longer than I thought it would. I feel that it’s best that I preface this review by saying that I haven’t read many thrillers before this one, and I dived in not really knowing what to expect or look forward to.
