pickSometimes I'm disturbed by the way Flynn writes about women- as vacuous, shallow people, deeply toxic, excepting, of course, the protagonist herself- but I can't deny this is a visceral, compelling mystery. Occasionally a little meandering and the timeline for the story is frustratingly vague, but the plot is nightmarishly vivid, and the final twist cuts deep. #litpuns
bibliobets I genuinely liked this one. I mean it's absolutely ridiculous but I love how sick and corporeal it was. 7y
elle.noel Oh AGREED. It got under my skin in such a physical way- I loved it but I'm not sure I ever want to read it again cover to cover. Gillian Flynn has a disconcerting gift for the repulsive. 7y
