Dark Places by Gillian Flynn

5.0

This book was not what I expected. As I read the book I found myself feeling sorry for Ben and his sisters, more so for Ben. His mom really could have done better by her children. The sad thing is there are women who can't pull themselves together because they are chasing a dead dream just like Patty. Runner was a P.O.S and of all the people in the book he should have had half his head taken off by that shot gun. Libby was left with so much guilt after her family was murdered and her brother put in prison. I think it was big of Ben to forgive her because after all she was a child who was coached. But she was all in all pathetic as hell. She basically was selling her story for a few hundred bucks after the donations ran out. Then for her to get mad because people moved on to other children that were killed or missing. She need professional help and probably medication. I really did not like how the book ended. It was a cliff hanger. I want to know what happened next. All in all it was a great book.
