The Complete Gillian Flynn: Gone Girl, Dark Places, Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn

5.0

---

Sharp Objects is the most disturbing book I've read in a long time. Gillian Flynn writes from the perspective of these incredibly fucked up characters in such a way that you feel like you're drowning in their thoughts. While not as clever as Gone Girl, this debut was far creepier. The only real criticism I have is that the final plot twist felt a bit rushed. Read this one on a sunny day with the knife drawer locked up tight.

Grade: A-
