If you loved Gone Girl and want more of that, here is the book for you.Here's what Jo and I have been talking about: is this kind of supertwist book a recent thing? Do you get what I mean when I say supertwist? Like, really really unreliable narrators, and enormous plot twists like "Everything you k...

This morning I woke up and remembered who I am, who the man I live with is, what happened yesterday, and the day before, and the day before, and so on. There are things I can't remember, of course, things that maddeningly get stuck right out of reach when I try to think of them, and surely there are...

I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would, sometimes I have been disappointed when there is so much publicity. However it was very easy to read, quite difficult to put down and will make a very good movie. My only gripe was the ending seemed a little rushed.

You know that disorienting feeling you get sometimes when you take a nap for too long? You wake up a little bleary eyed and confused, wondering where you are or what time it is. But then you recognize your house and remember that you decided to take a nap. Well what if, when you woke up, couldn’t re...

As is sometimes the case with thrillers that have a slow build, the last 100 pages made this book worthwhile reading. Evertyhing leading up to that was kind of a yawn. I may have liked it less simply because it's a similar story to my favorite movie of all time (Memento) and the first Dean Koontz no...

The premise is interesting and I found the first 50 pages of this book entertaining. After that it was too repetitive (I know that she has to be reminded of stuff, but the reader doesn't), conflicting (she comments that reading the journal is like reading a novel and she has no emotional attachment...
