The Maidens

4.5 stars. I was not a huge fan of The Silent Patient (unpopular opinion I know!) so no one is more surprised than me that The Maidens absolutely enthralled me. I love a bit of dark academia, secret university cults and creepy professors. And the best part was - I did not predict the ending. My mind usually goes to dark places, but damn this was dark AF. Glad I gave this author a second chance.
