Left me wanting more.

Very good short story. Hated how it ended though. This is actually the first time I've read Gillian Flynn but everything I hear about her and having read this one still makes me want to read Gone Girl and her other novels. I like her writing style.

The end was a little underwhelming if I'm being honest but other than that it was pretty good.

Need more Gillian Flynn bad

Probably shouldn't have read past the awful first two pages.

UGH! SO GOOD! Please write another book, Gillian. I'm dying.
