Only I can make her speak.”These words were enough to draw my attention to this book. When I got my hands on it, I didn’t have many expectations. Given the hype, I kept myself grounded because I didn’t want to be let down. I was not very invested in the beginning but after some time it was hard to keep the book aside. It was an amazing experience reading this book.“The Silent Patient” is masterfully written, and I have to say I’m not disappointed. It was thrilling, mind-boggling, and pretty intense, to be honest. I lived through the book, and it left me in awe in the end.Alicia Berenson the woman who murdered her husband and went silent after that, was taken to a mental hospital afterwards. No one could make her talk and with the time people lost interest in her. She was invisible in the hospital. Until one day Theo Faber joined the hospital as a Psychotherapist, who becomes obsessed with Alicia’s silence trying to uncover the truth behind the mystery. As much as he delves into Alicia’s life and uncovers many hidden aspects, he finds himself trapped in the web of obsession and Unexpected twists.Alex Michaelides has crafted this book. He weaved the story very neatly with precision and quality.It was an absolute page-turner that kept me hanging in there, thinking “Okay what’s next now”. The writing is sharp and compelling, it has great depth and it is very intriguing Which kept me hooked until the last page. The definition of unexpected twist I have to say.I was particularly drawn to the book’s dual narrative. Despite the alternating perspectives between Alicia’s diary and Theo’s narration, the continuity of the story was effectively maintained. This contributed to a consistent sense of suspense and tension throughout the book. It was written very meticulously. I loved how it explores the themes of trauma, trust and obsession. And also how it deeply explored art, Psychology and the human psyche.Overall it was a thought-provoking and gripping story that kept me on the edge of my seat. It’s a must-read for people who love psychological thrillers and love a well-written twisty tale. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Peak thriller *by on Reviewed in India 28 October 2025* 📖 The Silent Patient — Review by KumaHow should I even explain it? This book made my night sleepless — in a good way. Excited is the only word I’ve got for it. From start to finish, it’s a complete rollercoaster of emotions.With Alicia sitting there silently, and Theo trying to uncover her truth, I kept asking myself — who really is the villain here? And just when I thought I had it figured out, the story turned everything upside down. That twist was pure brilliance.The pacing and screenplay-like narration are the strongest parts. Every scene fits perfectly, with zero flaws. This was my very first thriller, and I never imagined I’d love this genre so much. I ended up buying loads of books because of this one!Rating: 9.5/10 — Excellent. A must-read for all mystery and thriller fans. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The thriller of 2019! *by on Reviewed in India 30 July 2020* 🌟THE SILENT PATIENT by ALEX MICHAELIDES is a thriller which includes the Greek tragedy of Alcestis in its plot. The story is set in London and is about Theo Faber, the psychotherapist and Alicia Berenson, the patient who killed her husband.🌟Alicia is an artist who has been silent for seven years after the murder and has only drawn a painting after the incident. Theo believes he could cure Alicia and make her talk again. In his attempts for the revival of Alicia's humanity, he discovers many truths which leads to other revelations.🌟It is a smartly written thriller and you won't put the book down until it is finished. I read it in two days along with my daily chores, and I didn't regret choosing this book. It has been a while since I bought any new books and this gift to myself was worthy.🌟Though I loved the book very much, the climax of the novel reminded me of a British- Canadian mystery thriller film which I saw a few years ago and the uncredited Malayalam remake of the same. I have read reviews stating the plot twists were unpredictable. In my case, I was not mind blown or was not shocked by the great plot twists because of the slight similarities they had with the aforementioned movies.🌟It was a decent thriller and the author has became a promising one from his debut itself. The neatly crafted novel with intricate psychological details increases the curiosity each time we turn the page. After reading one section we will make an assumption about a character and in the next section, the author will shatter those assumptions impeccably.🌟It is alarming and thought provoking how the abuses and atrocities we face as a child could dangerously follow you to the future. Each characters of the novel are shaped well and has successfully imbibed to the story.🌟Irrelevant characters and incidents used to deviate readers attention and make them assume what the twist could be are common in thrillers and the absence of the same in this book makes it a breath of fresh air. If you are a person who loves thrillers, the silent patient is the one must not be missed! ## Frequently Bought Together - Silent Patient - The Housemaid - Verity --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/147654409-the-silent-patient](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/147654409-the-silent-patient) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-04*
