The Complete Gillian Flynn: Gone Girl, Dark Places, Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn
5.0
***** SPOILERS *****
I thought this book was absolutely brilliant. While reading the first part, I thought of every possible reason why Amy could be missing, so much so that even though the idea that she simply left her husband crossed my mind I wasn't near sure it was gonna be it. Her character is so well thought and interesting although of course the more I read the more I despised her.
When I read the last line my first reaction was to violently close the book on the chair next to me. I was so angry that Amy was still "out there", that she was going to be a mother and that she forced Nick to stay. But then I came to the realisation that he was just as mad as she was, their relationship is as toxic as can be and they both feed on that. I feel somewhat sorry for the both of them.
I hoped that one would kill the other, making for a dramatic and passionate ending but this was really the best way to write it. The most unpredictable end. The psychological aspect of this book greatly appealed to me.
*Mind blown*. This is a truly amazing read (Amazing, get it ?) !
