Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn
DID NOT FINISH: 0%
The whole time I was reading, the characters were all super unlikeable and weird. Not in an entertaining way either, like a “can you shut up already” kinda way. I was gonna power through hoping that it would get better considering it’s popularity but then I got hit with the twincest line. He says something about how people assumed they hooked up in high school because of how they acted. And then proceeds to heavily clarify that he didn’t fuck his sister. Why? Just why? Also the way Amy’s first journal entry is written, you can just tell a dude wrote it based on the dialogue. The way she speaks feels very fetishy, like how the women are described in Diary of An Oxygen Thief. I understand that the characters are supposed to be unlikeable but I just can’t enjoy reading it.
