Our group argued for an hour about a character's motive in 'The Silent Patient'

Three people kept saying the husband was a victim too, but the book clearly shows he lied about the affair from page 150. It changed the whole debate about her actions. Has your club ever had a big split over a basic plot point?

Honestly, the husband's lies make him the real villain for me.

Isn't that always how it goes, the little lies that pile up over time?

Nah, the wife's actions were way worse, no contest.
