God I forgot how freaking good this book is. It's very much dated, with the characters laid off magazine writers who lost their job to the internet and the 2008 crash, but the twists and turns are so good. The first half of the book alternates between the day Nick Dunne discovers his wife Amy has gone missing and her diary detailing the early days of their relationship. The second half is Nick, buckling under his secrets and police pressure, and Amy's own story of what happened that day. It reminds me of the Interrupter's song lyric "I'm a match, she's kerosene."
