Well, my original suspicion from somewhere around 25-30% was correct. I was hoping I was wrong and there would be some great twist, but it was still a well-told story.I didn't love this book. I tried to read Gone Girl a few times and just couldn't get into it, but I decided to try this one anyway, b...

Gillian Flynn does an amazing job of writing messed up disturbing characters that aren't particular sympat...
As I read this book, I thought to myself that there were almost certainly people I knew who could relate to Camille's story, individuals for whom this work of fiction too closely resembled their truth. To the damaged, the broken and the lost, I offer you my deepest condolences. The Divine Miss M ...
I absolutely loved this book. The first book I read by Gillian Flynn was Gone Girl. I liked this one much more. The characters were so complex. I was so interested in Camille's life and background.
