"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.
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.
