Gone Girl

Thursday, January 31, 2013

Not only is this title in reference to the fact that I have been MIA for awhile....it is also the book I just finished reading for my book club and couldn't put down. The past couple of months have been so busy with holidays and work that I had to prioritize my life just to keep my sanity.  For those of you who are still checking in and reading, thank you!  Now that life is back to normal I should be able to dedicate more time to sharing with you all the things I love.

Now onto the book "Gone Girl" by Gillian Flynn, I am not kidding when I say you will not figure it out! The ending of this story is impossible to predict....there are so many twists and turns along the way.  Just when you think you have figured it out, another bombshell is dropped! The book is about a husband who is caught up in the middle of his wife's disappearance on their five year anniversary.  During the investigation police find  a journal that Amy has been keeping outlining their marriage.  It isn't soon after that police start looking at Nick as the main suspect in Amy's disappearance. The book alternates between Nick and Amy and Amy's journal, and paints such a clear picture of how two people in the same marriage can have such different points of view about the same situation. The book takes you on a dark journey through their marriage and the search to find out just what happened to Amy.



I am not going to give away any spoilers but encourage you to start reading "Gone Girl" if you aren't already. This book was so good that my husband read it and kept telling me " I think one of two things happened." Only to tell me a couple of days later...."I didn't see that coming."  Gillian Flynn was brilliant at keeping you guessing until the very end.  Her writing was brilliant and such a joy to find a book that keeps you on the edge all the way through.

So, what have you been reading? Have you read "Gone Girl"?  I would love to hear your thoughts or your suggestions on what to read next. Share below and don't forget to become a follower.
