THIS IS NOT AN AUDIO BOOK

In Part 2 of The Boyfriend, the closeted Allison/Miranda of our Sex & the City gang is killed. Why? Because Tom stabbed his deadbeat dad and Allison saw Tom & Slug rolling the dead deadbeat dad’s body into their sedan. 
Slug rises the ranks as the most likely serial killer as he knew right away how to clean up a dead body, how many garbage bags were needed to line the trunk, and had a great spot to dump the body.
The sisters play a game of Red Flag or Deal Breaker for Sydney’s first date with Mystery Doctor Man. Their final verdict? DEAL BREAKER. Sydney’s final verdict? GREEN FLAG I NEED A HUSBAND.

THIS IS NOT AN AUDIO BOOK

The sisters journey back to the voice-to-text queen of thrillers, Freida McFadden (said with the utmost respect)
The book oscillates between some time in the past that feels like the 50s and present day.
The past section follows four teenage students - Daisy, Tom, Allison, & Slug. It is clear Tom is a psychopath in training who is only outweirded by his brofriend Slug. Per the text, Tom wants to be Daisy's boyfriend <3 Per the subtext, Allison also wants to be Daisy's girlfriend <3
The present day section follows three girlfriends, Sex and the City Style - Bonnie (Sex positive Sammantha), Gretchen (tradwife Charlotte), and Sydney (our self-absorbed Carrie Bradshaw). You may ask WHERE'S Miranda? She is stuck in the past as the closeted Allison.
Unfortunately for our story, the story quickly turns Death and the City as our Bonnie/Sammantha gets cut to ribbons in her NY apartment.
Who is the murderer? Join in as we weigh all the options

Before the sisters can close the book on The Silent Patient, they attempt to do a quick 15 minute chat on the morality of novel. As usual, this takes 40 minutes to cover

Aussie Correspondent asks the important question on Theo's character arc - Theo appeared to be a rehabilitated person from abuse. However, by the end of the book we find that he is unable to escape his past and becomes an abuser himself. Discussion? Are abused people destined to become abusers themselves.

THIS IS NOT AN AUDIO BOOK

The sisters wrap up the Silent Patient and give it a perfect 5 stars! The twist was twisty and most importantly a careful eye would have been able to solve the psycho the whole time was……*****! 

The sisters wonder what drove Gabe to cheat on Alicia - did he feel trapped into a caretaker role he didn’t want? Was he after Alicia’s money? Or was he an insecure man who was jealous of Alicia’s artistic ability? 

After Theo’s crazy is revealed, Chrissy is ready to throw him in the slammer while Candice still has hope for her psycho protagonist. 

Stay-tuned because we have a special pick-up episode to discuss the morality of The Silent Patient from Aussie Correspondent - Emily!
