It was my least favorite of hers. Not terrible, but too long and not as engaging.

I didn’t like it much at all. I think I only gave it 2 stars from memory.

A very dark, sad, and depressing book. I loved it though.

@Alyssa agreed! by the time she got to Gone Girl, I was already figuring out the endings. Sharp Objects was just fantastic, such a strong book!

Yes! I remember enjoying it so much and hated waiting so long for Dark Places (which I really loved too). When I read Gone Girl, I liked it, but I really preferred the older books. I can’t wait to see what she writes next.

I read GG first and SO last. I enjoyed both, but felt that GG was better. Interesting that it might depend on what order you read them in to determine which you liked better. ? My fave of all though is Dark Places.
