Big CW for animal abuse, death, torture.

Anyway, I think I'm at the point where if Gillian Flynn releases it, I'm going to read it.

Gillian Flynn is now one of my favorite authors. There is only 2 people that I just can't seem to put there books down no matter what I do and that is Ms. Flynn and Patrick Rothfuss.

This was a very good book. Captivating from the very first chapter. Quite a bit of messed up stuff in here though. As soon as I thought that I had who did the murders I was completely wrong. I love books that can catch me off guard. Now I have read 2 out of 3 of Gillian Flynn's books and am thrilled to read the 3rd one.

I really love Gillian Flynn’s writing. She is able to tell thriller stories so well! I really enjoyed how this book unfolded with three different character POV’s following two timelines. It kept the plot moving and held my interest. I was pretty surprised by the ending, and while I didn’t love this quite as much as Gone Girl, I did still like it. A quick and easy thriller that I’d recommend!
