En Hjelpende Hånd

Gillian Flynn

3.55 AVERAGE


"The Grownup" was originally part of a short story collection, and would probably feel more satisfying in that context than as a one-off. I'd still say that I'll read anything Gillian Flynn cares to write, but this was just OK, not spectacular.

Smart, clever and twisty.

3.5 Stars (COME ON GOODREADS...GIVE US HALF STAR CAPABILITY).

A quick, fun read. I love stories that leave the end hanging in the air...

This was a decent short story, though it felt rushed and I wished it was longer. It definitely makes you think about who you can trust.

Short and spooky psychological thriller. I love Gillian Flynn’s writing.

Wow.
I’ve officially read all of Gillian Flynn’s writing.
I was worried this wouldn’t be as memorable as her others, with it being short. I was wrong! This may even my favorite.

Odd short story. Same "M.O." and formula for Flynn.
dark mysterious tense fast-paced

ambiguous ending... you never really know what is happening...
