Book Review: Gone Girl

Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl is good from the get-go but around a quarter of the way in, it really starts picking up.  Right when you hit the halfway point, it hits "can't put it down" status.  That's exactly what happened to me so I stayed up til 2 AM on a Friday night to finish the second half.

When Amy Dunne goes missing the morning of her fifth wedding anniversary, the community sympathizes with her husband Nick until inconsistencies in his story and revealing diary entries from Amy make him seem too shady to trust.  But what if Amy is not the golden girl everyone adores?

People often say you never know what goes on behind closed doors, but the Dunne household is more screwed up than anybody can imagine.

4 out of 5 stars.
