The Therapist by B.A. Paris

So…. another suspense book with a detective vibe. I give it a 3. From the beginning of the book I already knew what was going to happen. I also did not like the “past” chapters in the book they felt irrelevant to the story. I felt it was pretty predictable though. If you read it or have read it let me know what you think? #booktok #BookReview #books

2024/9/3 Edited to

B.A. Paris, renowned for her gripping psychological thrillers like 'Behind Closed Doors,' explores themes of therapy and trust in her latest novel 'The Therapist.' This book dives into the intricacies of human relationships, often revealing that not everything is as it seems. The story navigates through psychological complexities, making it a thought-provoking read despite some criticisms regarding its predictability and pacing. The combination of suspense and relatable characters can captivate those who enjoy emotional depth in their thrillers. Readers interested in this genre may also appreciate other works by Paris that blend intrigue with rich character development. If you're drawn to suspenseful tales that keep you questioning the truth, adding 'The Therapist' to your reading list may be worthwhile. Don't forget to connect with other readers through book communities and platforms, like #booktok and #BookReview, where discussions about the novel's twists and narrative choices are ongoing.

Things that actually help with AuDHD burnout (from an AuDHD therapist)

AuDHD burnout isn’t just being tired. It’s a full-system depletion that affects energy, emotions, sensory tolerance, and executive functioning all at once. And for many women, it builds slowly over months of pushing through, masking, and managing more than your nervous system was designed to hold.
