minus a half star for all of the animal death & cruelty
WOW this was insane, i read the last 150 pages in a night because i just couldn’t put it down, it was slow to grip me but once it did i couldn’t stop reading. i kind of guessed what had happened by the last 50 pages or so but i also kind of didn’t. these characters were so fucking horrible, especially diondra, but in the most well written way it actually made me legitimately angry, and wow i think gillian flynn might be my new favorite author. now on to gone girl !
