@Aimee it’s far fetched with a lot of plot holes

Ugggh that’s the reason i don’t even bother with thrillers these days! I’m always just thinking “ok that was a waste of reading time” when i could be reading something more perfect…

I liked the book although a little disappointed in the ending. The movie differed from the books in a lot of ways but I thought it was good, too.

I haven’t seen the movie but I did read the book. It was slow going at first for me and it took awhile for it to grab me but when it did, it did. Having said that the end was not my favorite. Overall I think it was a great book though

That’s how the movie started as well. But the soundtrack was fun and the ending was all twisty turny. I reserved the book at my library.

I’m reading it now and just over halfway through – I think it’s ok but have started skimming pages. Not sure I like any of the main characters.

I saw the movie Saturday. I don’t think any of the main characters are supposed to be likeable. They’re all flawed.

@Zoe agreed. I totally lost interest half way through. None of the characters were believable. The end is completely disappointing.

I just reserved it at my library after seeing the movie Saturday night. Looking forward to getting my hands on it.

Ugh. I felt like it was a big waste of time. I liked the movie. The book was of the same vein as Gone Girl, but not nearly as well done. I didn’t find any of the characters to be believable.
