Nick and Amy Dunne have both lost their jobs in NYC and have recently moved back to Nick’s hometown in
Missouri to help care for his dying mother. On the morning of their 5th wedding anniversary, Amy vanishes.
There are signs of a struggle. As the police investigate, they’re frustrated by Nick’s inability to explain much of anything and the answers he does give, just aren't adding up.

The narrative switches back and forth between Nick's perspective and Amy's diary entries, which paint a VERY different picture, indeed.

THIS certainly is a marriage that has gone off the rails. Nick and Amy are two of the most unlikeable characters
I have come across in a long time. The book is dark, twisted and disturbing. The ending was a surprise. I'm not
sure how I expected it to end, but that wasn't it. I closed the book and thought; "Really. You're kidding, right?" But I
think because it ended that way....the characters have stayed with me and I find myself still wondering about them.
That doesn't happen very often. And because of that, this book will go down as a favorite.

This book had a slow start as most known kind of what is going to happen but be patient and things start getting really good. I highly recommend reading the book before going to see the movie as in the case of most books to movies, the book is much better.

Not your typical mystery formula book. I loved all the twists and turns Flynn throws at us. In my opinion, this book is very smart and original.

Marriage. Murder. Lies…

I haven’t given 5 stars out to a lot of books lately; and while this book may not be perfectly written, it caught my attention. I wanted to keep reading it until the very end. And I mean, with marriage, murder, lies, cheating, how could it not be good?

For a quick synopsis it is about Nick Dunne and his wife Amy who recently left New York jobless to Nick’s hometown to look after his ailing mother. Amy has disappeared and Nick reacts inappropriately to some of the search, leading people to believe he is guilty. The ultimate question is, did he kill his wife, or is there something else? Amy, was the subject of a bestselling series of books written by her child psychologist parents. She was Amazing Amy to the world, and had attracted some stalkers in the past, possibly being the something else. And I fear that I can’t really give much else in the review for the possibilities of spoilers.

I love the twists of this book. I enjoyed the writing styles between the characters as it allowed me to gain an understanding and appreciation for them both. If you want to read a mystery that has an underlying love story attached to it, pick this book up.

I also can see a sequel to this book, which I am super excited for!

5 stars!

Amazing book! It is such an easy read, and fascinating! I finished it in less than 48 hours (and it is not a small book)! I am they kind if person, where if I am not interested in a book after the first chapter, I'm not going to take the time to finish it, but with this book I was hooked after the first couple of pages.

This book is great! Gripping story, cannot put it down, sad when you finish it! Cannot wait for the movie
