The Silence in Her Eyes by Armando Lucas Correa
5.0
This is definitely going to be one of my top reads of 2023. We all know Correa can write a great historical fiction novel, but this is proof that he may be even better at thrillers! Correa had me riveted from the start! I love books like that.
The novel is told from the POV of Leah, who has akinetopsia (motion blindness). As the story unfolds, we learn what it might be like to live with this rare condition, and how difficult it might be to really understand what is happening around us if we had the condition. At so many moments in the novel it is so difficult for Leah (and the reader) to know who to trust. If Leah could see motion, would it be easier for her?
For all you thriller fans this is one to pick up when it publishes on January 16, 2024. As the book jacket states, ‘Paula Hawkins fans will devour this.’
Thank you to NetGalley and Simon & Schuster Canada for the opportunity to read and review the ARC of The Silence in Her Eyes. Thank you @armandocorrea for making your first attempt at a thriller! I hope there are many more.
