I was finally able to pick up The Maidens by Alex Michaelides audiobook after weeks of library hold and in need of a dark academia read. If anyone is interested in buddy read lmk.

Have a wonderful day!

P.S. If anyone has other academia recommendation lmk I’ll add it to my tbr

I liked this book very much and like The Silent Patient even more. This is just my opinion but I am not sure this is a book well suited to just listening to the audio book. I found myself going back and reviewing various quotes for deeper meaning that just wouldn't be possible listening to the story unfold. I'm sure it will still be "good" listening to it but I'm not sure you will get the full impact of the story just listening.

Thank you for the insight. I usually highlight/bookmark parts of the recording in Libby while listening so I can go back and digest later. The silent patient is on my tbr too. What makes the silent patient better in your opinion?


Brigitte Ayerves Valderas | 5 comments I listened to the audiobook. This is a great Halloween weekend read.

How did you like or dislike it? Without spoiling

It's really good. It has a disheartening twist at the end. Without spoiling anything, I would just say pay attention to everyone.

Good as long as you can look back when needed you will be fine.

I just found the Silent Patient to be a real page turner and a quicker read keeping my nose in the book from beginning to end.

Red Bird I have it on my TBR. I can start it now if you want to read together.
