Dark things can happen in people's lives, becoming something worse when buried deep. This story has a strong voice, and the protagonist has serious problems to confront. The topic of cutting is handled in a way the reader can empathize. As the story progresses, the protagonist exposes old wounds, no...

Thank god I read this after Gone Girl if i would have picked up this book first i wouldn't even have gone near Gone Girl. Which was way way better story and plotwise which seemed missing from sharp objects. I fail to undertstand what was in Gillian Flynn's mind when she wrote this book? Was she try...

This book was really disturbing and not in a good way. The heroine needed some serious help and some serious soul-searching. She made a lot of questionable choices, especially in regards to her 13 year old sister. The mystery took a backseat to her family drama, so when everything was revealed, it w...

I liked Gone Girl, and I'm half way through Dark Places and so far think it's brilliant. However, Sharp Objects is a classic shock value novel. It's very disappointing.

"He stopped once I pulled out my tape recorder and asked about the murders. Then it was those whirling wheels that had his full attention. People got such a charge from seeing their names in print. Proof of existence. I could picture a squabble of ghosts ripping through piles of newspapers. Pointing...

I've been sick with a cold today, drinking tea and tending to myself. How appropriate, then, that I finish reading Sharp Objects tonight. The book reads like a Faulknerian nightmare with a family so broken, a protagonist so feeble and self-destructive, one wonders how in the world she could function...
