I really was not expecting that twist at the very end but it didn’t wow me like I was expecting the twist to wow me. I think this would benefit from a reread

Gillian Flynn is SO good at making you feel uncomfortable. So many parts of this book made me feel gross and icky but I think it really adds to the book

This book was extremely captivating, I accidentally read the bulk of it over two days. But, I found it very predictable, and the characters interactions fairly unbelievable.
