This was a great thriller/mystery. There were a lot of twists and turns that kept me wondering what was going to happen next! I could mostly predict what would happen, but I found myself dumb founded in the middle of this book. We already knew what happened to Amy by halfway through, so I was wondering what could possibly happen now? Boy I was not ready for what happened, and the ending was such a cliffhanger!

I'm glad I finally read this, since it's been in my bookshelf and on my TBR for serveral years. I haven't read that many thriller books overall since I usually enjoy more lighthearted media, but it was nice to switch it up and try something different. I became very invested in the story and it felt exciting to get to the end and see how it ended. I think this story is so interesting to disect and discuss, and I definitly understand why it became such a phenomenon after its release.

Some people should just get a divorce.

Me at the beginning of part 2: Yes Amy!! Girl boss!! Gaslight harder!! 

Me at the beginning of part 3: I hope Nick actually fucking kills her and then he goes to jail.

Evocative, thrilling, ridiculously clever, sinister. Sharp and complex commentary on feminism, misogyny, generational trauma, heterosexual relationships, sociopathy, familial dynamics, and the media sphere circa 2010. It’s a lot of ground to cover, but somehow this book weaves these threads together deftly into one whole, complete, devastating portrait of mutually assured destruction.
