ryanmcculloch 's review for:

Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn
5.0

A dark, twisted, warped examination of a dark, twisted, warped marriage. Don't even approach the novel if you have a faint heart or hope to be married soon – you will emerge with feet colder than a corpse's.

Flynn really does capture a gothic, capital-R Romantic atmosphere greatly. Two narrator fuel one another for your affection, and all the way through you're not entirely sure you'd be a good person were you to give them it.

A phenomenal book. As compulsively readable as a thriller, as deep as a literary masterpiece. The author should be really, really proud.
