This is a 3.5 stars.....good but cut off.....where is the finish?
I really enjoyed this short little tale. I wish all of my favorite thriller writers would write these little page turners that had me racing to the end and then sitting up after I turned off the light, scared out of my mind.

Has well-developed characters for as short as the book is. Picks up halfway through. It was okay.
Wow!! Talk about a short story with a punch! It took me about 40 min to read this last night and it was awesome! Really twisted, dark characters. Kept me guessing until the very end. She originally wrote this for a George RR Martin anthology. At the end she wrote, "For George, because he asked me to tell him a story." So cool! Def, def check this out.
Por que ler este livro? Ou melhor, por que eu o li?
Porque é de Gillian Flynn. Salvo raras exceções, qualquer pessoa que tenha lido Garota exemplar quer ler mais livros da autora.
Porque foi escrito a pedido de George R.R. Martin, para fazer parte de uma coletânea de histórias - O Príncipe de Westeros e outras histórias. E, se pediu, ele certamente, assim como nós pobres mortais, leu algum texto da autora e viu algo de valor ali.
Porque a sinopse é interessante. Vigaristas são sempre protagonistas cativantes.
E, finalmente, porque tem uma abertura que chama muito a atenção e faz o leitor querer saber mais:
"I didn't stop giving hand jobs because I wasn't good at it. I stopped giving hand jobs because I was the best at it."
("Eu não parei de bater punheta para os outros por não ser boa. Parei de bater punheta por ser a melhor.")
