Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn
3.0
I won’t lie Gone Girl was an average book at best, not Gillian Flynn’s best but certainly not her worst novel. I liked the premise of Perfect Amy and Nick being targeted by the media. Very similar to real life cases like this. But I don’t know I guess I was bored? Yeah that’s the word bored.
It was so slow, annoyingly so. Sure I don’t mind slow books a lot of the time when they’re actually interesting. But this book just didn’t do it for me. Amy’s character was just annoying as hell and bland. Nick was better but not by much a lying dick of a man who cheated on his wife for a year thinking she didn’t know.
I gave it three stars genuinely because I enjoyed the premise, I just wish it had been easier to get into and not so topsy turvy with the diary.
