The sisters travel back to the isle of the UK & Greece as they pick up Alex Michaelides best selling thriller, The Silent Patient.

Before opening the novel, Candice reviews the harrowing life of Alex Michaelides; full of opportunity and disappointment. Alex’s personal history blends seamlessly into The Silent Patient, making the sisters wonder if this is somewhat a memoire.

THIS IS NOT AN AUDIO BOOK

While Part 2 left the sisters thinking Reese Witherspoon’s debut novel would land between a 4 & a 5, the final third of the book goes off the rails into pure chaos resulting in a 3.2 star rating. 
Where things went wrong:
Nadia’s tattoo was FAKE! Turns out Nadia employed Maggie to, ‘mess with her mind’

Oleg is stabbed in the middle of a mosh pit and his body is crowd-surfed away

Maggie turns into single-white-female and attempts to call the Dubai Police while operating as an undercover US CIA spy. 

Despite all of the evidence pointing to the contrary, Nadia believes Maggie killed Marc & Trace! 

Nadia logs into Longevity labs using missing Trace’s year old credentials, immediately triggering the alarms

EVERYTHING WITH PORKCHOP was b-a-n-a-n-a-s

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE MONA LISA? WHY DID WE SPEND 10 PAGES READING ABOUT IT

Things have picked up in Reese's debut novel - Maggie has performed a first-of-a-kind nose job using a 3D printed nose, Nadia’s unexpected tattoo, Maggie’s Fast & the Furious style car crash and more!
Where our theories land:
Marc is aliiiiiiive

Trace is a turn coat

Nadia is the big bad

Oleg is the Gomez to Nadia’s Morticia

Pig Pen (AKA Pork Chop) will fly his motorcycle to the secret lab where Marc is kept as a researcher slave creating organs to keep the Nadia young forever

THIS IS NOT AN AUDIO BOOK

After loving Reese Witherspoon's book club pick - Broken Country (please read & listen if you haven't already; it's great!), the sisters put on their detective hats for Gone Before Goodbye (co written by Harlen Coben & Reese Witherspoon)

We spend the first 20 minutes going through Reese's wildly successful resume, including a first place medal for a tri-state talent show when she was 12. Then we get into the Reese's wild medical thriller

Join us as we wonder if Reese is name dropping products for #ads or if Maggie is just a pretentious medical doc-TOR

The ladies wrap up The Sweetest Getaway and detail all (2? 5? 7??) heists that happen in part two. We talk about all the characters we distrust (pretty much everyone except Lorinda), moral ambiguity, and who we wanted to get caught in the end. We were big fans of this adventure and hope you were too!
Join us next week for Gone Before Goodbye by Reese Witherspoon and Harlan Coben!
