I feel like I need a bath after finishing this book! Like taking my brain out and washing it! This book was interesting and strange!! Intense! And very sad at that! Mother suffering from problems, daughter suffering from problems! Everyone in the town suffering from some sort of mental illness it seems like! 

I was so wrapped up in this book! I didn't even realize I was finished until I closed the book! And let out a breath!! Idk what I expected but it wasn't what was played out in the pages! The book was WOW! Camille Preaker was a little boring/cringe but I can understand why she is that way! Having a childhood like she did! I don't think anyone would come out alright! 
This author books have a way of pulling me in no matter how strange or wild they start off or end!

Wtf did I just read? And I mean that I the best/worst way possible. I'm gonna need at least 24 hours to recover. This book is one big trigger warning, but worth the read in the right headspace.

This is the most disturbing book I have ever read. Gillian Flynn is a genius with suspense; I couldn't put it down even though it made me feel sick, kinda like an addictive poison. Every trigger warning under the sun.
