The Silent Patient

 

The Silent PatientThe Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Wow! What a great, well-written mystery thriller. The plot was so well thought out and the writing, superior. But and this is a big but, the f-bomb was all over in it. It was a 5-star book for me, taken down to 3 stars for those stupid words. It is my observation that English books use that word a LOT. Culturally, it most not be as offensive there as it is here. I scribbled out the word whenever it appeared in my copy, so I could feel comfortable putting it into a Little Free Library. I hope whoever gets it will appreciate that.
