    Love this

    This is a good book to get into reading thrillers. It was the first one I started with and I was hooked. The beginning is a little tough to get through, but once you do the story line is extremely gripping. You need that slow burn for all the twists to really leave their mark. I read this as an ebook but have bought a physical copy since I finished it because I liked it that much. Definitely worth the time. Don't give up in the beginning, I promise the end is worth it!

    Best thriller!

    I remember picking this book because of it's cover and did not expect much from this book. I love how there are so many twists and turns in the book. A must read book for thriller junkies.

    SUCH A GOOD READ

    I LOVED THIS BOOK. Gillian Flynn is a great author, and she is amazing at telling stories. I could not put this book down, I read it in a few hours. Love all of her books.

    Horrible

    I'm an avid reader and can enjoy just about any book and always force myself to finish what I started. This was a challenge. The only thing positive I can say about it is that this was at least better than the movie. The plot was predictable and kind of played out. The author tried to make it seem suspenseful and mysterious but it fell short. The story was flat. The characters were dull and I made it to the end but it took a long time. Plus by the time I got to the end I wasn't even disappointed by the disappointing ending. I count this as one of the books I've read that I like the least. Definitely would not read this again

    Yes!

    It's a thriller in the best tradition of Alfred Hitchcock and layered with brilliantly written characters; it's the kind of book that's nearly impossible to put down. The surprises and twists keep the reader guessing up until the final page, and my first thought upon finishing the novel was that I wanted to read it a second time.

    Psychological Thriller that will hook you

    This is a book I put off reading for quite some time and once I started it I was hooked. It takes you on an emotional roller coaster of griping twists and surprises you never see coming. The character development is phenomenal and the writing exceptional. The ending was the only part I didn't really like, but after reading the last couple of chapters several times I found it to be quite fitting.

    loved

    Twisty like a pretzel, dark like unadulterated chocolate, and as compelling as a twisted car wreck, this thriller delivers! On their fifth anniversary, Nick and Amy's marriage implodes when Amy goes missing and Nick is hardly as distraught as he ought to be. Too much plot summary would detract from the pleasure of reading the book for yourself. Suffice it to say, this is one psychological mind bender accompanied by witty, incisive, laser beam writing

    I read "Gone Girl", a long time ago. One thing I like to do, is to also see the movie to compare.
    This book was so well written and really kept you guessing. About a husband of the year and the disappearance of his wife. Gillian Flynn did justice to this book.

    I read Gone Girl before the movie came out I loved how the book really kept you thinking and wanting to know. It was an amazingly well written book that I couldn't put down and feeling for the characters. One of my favorites..
