Gone Girl - Gillian Flynn

Oh my..

Where do I begin?

I cannot decide

if I really liked this book

or really hates it.

Perhaps I loved

how much I didn't like it.

Does that make sense?

Gone Girl

is the story of Amy and Nick.

On their 5th anniversary,

Amy disappears.

The first third of the book

bounces back and forth

between Nick's views on the disappearance

and Amy's diary.

Nick is suspected of killing Amy.

Then we get to part two

where we learn that

Amy is in fact,

alive

and has framed Nick

for her murder.

She's a psychopath!

Part three:

Amy doesn't like her situation.

Nick has "convinced" her 

he loves her,

so she comes back.

With a story of being kidnapped.

And now,

the two of them 

are living

miserably-ever-after.

Here's my thing,

the story itself was great.

But I like great characters.

And I didn't like either character.

Not even the

I-love-to-hate-them

feeling.

Which makes this one

a tough one to gage.
