The MMC got too controlling/possessive and that made him less appealing to me.

Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn
5.0
Excellent, gripping, never predictable, and just so damn well-written--I kept finding myself rereading little turns of phrase or well-chosen adjectives. Definitely threw me for a loop about halfway through, and then continually after that. A delightful cat-and-mouse game about a marriage gone horribly awry. I finished it in about two days. Don't pick up this book unless you've got some time to kill!
