i fucking love gillian flynn. i love the way she writes apathetic, take-no-shit-cuz-i've-been-thru-enough-shit women. her writing is enthralling and twisted and wrenching. i'm ready for gone girl.

3.75 STARS
intriguing characterizations. Some characters might be innocent in regard to one event, but not innocent in others. Two folds and that is what kept me engaged and interested enough to finish the book.
I will say the reveal at the end of the book, one part was done well, and the other was thrown in as a line or two, not much time or thought spent with it.
