Der Plottwist am Ende war wirklich unvorhersehbar, unfassbar Generell wurde die Spannung sehr gut aufgebaut und ich habe wirklich viele gute Zitate markieren können 5 Sterne hätte ich sicherlich gegeben, wenn die griechische Mythologie mich mehr interessieren würde Die Verknüpfung mit The Silent Patient war wirklich super und vollkommen unerwartet
i fucking loves this book. i was constantly guessing who it was and was kind of wrong. i had the feeling that it was her but i was too convinced that it was him.i really wanted to know what exactly happened in the epilogue like what happened when she went in. 5⭐️
2.75 I dreaded to pick up this book. I struggled through the first 50 pages and then was surprised that I finished the remaining 300 pages in one day. The book itself was bizzare. I didn't expect the twist at the end. My personal highlight was meeting Theo out of 'The silent patient' again. I didn't connected or cared mich for the characters and I hate it when a thriller wraps up in the last ten pages. Overall okayish but not great
Das hat Spaß gemacht, auch wenn das Ende wieder fast ein bisschen zu spektakulär war für meinen Geschmack. 😅 Aber: ein Thriller, der an der Uni in Cambridge spielt, in dem es einen Geheimbund gibt und einen attraktiven aber grusligen Professor, der auch privat ein Faible für griechische Mythologie hat… für mich hat das Setting gepasst und war spannend. Ich habe diesen Thriller gern gelesen - den Handlungsstrang rund um Henry hätte ich aber nicht gebraucht. 🙃
It was amazing! I am still shocked by the ending and the whole plot...
A murder? On a university campus? And the victim is part of a small group that worships Greek Mythology? Sign me up. I had not read The Silent Patient yet when I started this. This is why I had zero expectations and desperately hoped that the ending wouldn't disappoint. And it honestly didn't. I think if you approach this with no pressuppositions you'll get a fast-paced Dark Academia "Whodunit" with all the vibes you could possibly hope for. The perfect read for the fall season!

Richtig richtig schlecht. Furchtbare Charaktere, furchtbarer Plot mit vielen vielen Löchern, dummer Twist, dumme Side-Stories. Ganz furchtbar.
I think I’ll have to reread the silent patient now, just to refresh my memory. This novel is chronologically set before the silent patient, and I think it makes a great lot of sense to either read this one before, or with several months in between, so that your memory is a little rusty (or it will spoil the book I think?) I didn’t expect the book to be what it was, but I still really enjoyed it. I thought I would get the POV of a more ‘inside’ person , a student perhaps, but instead it was Marianas who is the aunt of a student and in her mid-thirties. I was promised more academia, but still, loved the thrilling aspects. There is a small plot hole I think, but it leads to think so I don’t mind. I tried to guess who the killer was repeatedly and though I guessed it, but then thought it was someone else, I didn’t guess all of it.
I didn’t enjoy that there were so many references to Greek mythology but overall the story was interesting and I was actually really suspicious of everyone and really didn’t see the plot twist coming! But I would have liked a little more of a back story to the plot twist since it seemed a little too surprising to just have this huge of a plot twist sprung on me right before the end.
