This is a very minor thing, but Amy has a declawed cat. The cat is only mentioned at the beginning of the story.wytnie's review against another edition

I had to put the book down after almost every chapter because of how much it affected me, in a good way, and I already read this book once before! And seen the movie! I knew what happens, but on my first read through as a teenager I didn't understand it the way I do now as an adult. I recalled it being boring and slow paced, but that is so far from the truth. Flynn's writing left me in awe. The way it's structured, the foreshadowing, the double meanings, the parallels - chef's kiss. I'm still thinking about it after completion as it left me with a lot to chew on. That's one of the hallmarks of a great book, in my opinion.

Nick and Amy were genuinely raw and unfiltered, both awful people in their own respects- yet I found unnecessary observations made about people's bodies..... On one hand it did help grind home your loathing for Nick and Amy, but c'mon. The descriptions were a little borderline and niche for my taste, which is sus if you ask me. 🤔
So much of this book centered around the internal monologue of someone trying to convince the reader why the opposite gender is trash... After the first couple hundred pages of that- we get it, the characters are sexist a**holes, now you're beating a dead horse.
At any rate, a stellar plot/storyline, just a little too much humdrum for me. 😅 Oddly enough, I would still recommend it. 🥴🤷🏻♀️
