Personally, I love everything Flynn writes. Gone girl isn’t my favorite of hers, but it is a good book. So continue please, it will be an interesting roller coaster.
I watched the movie before reading the book so that ruined it for me, but it’s still a really good book. I also love her other books, disregarding the bad grammar I’ve picked up in a good few ?. Actually Gone Girl is the best edited one.
I enjoyed it quite a bit. Once you hit the middle of the book, in my opinion, it starts to pick up a lot. In no way are you meant to like either main characters but if you do that’s alright. Just know that you’ll get frustrated with them as the book continues – its supposed to be that way. I loved the ending and if you have seen the film, the cinematography is beautiful but does not do the book justice. Happy reading! I hope you enjoy it!
I, personally, hated it. However, I couldn’t put it down, and the fact that it was able to bring out such a strong reaction says a lot about the writer.
I loved it. But I hated Sharp Objects. Those are the only two books of hers that I’ve read, so I need to read more before I can form an opinion of her writing as a whole. ?
My unpopular vote is Gillian Flynn is overrated. Her books are predictable. That being said, I can’t get enough of whatever it is going on in her dark, twisted mind. I’d still say- keep reading. P.S. The audio version was amazing!
though it wasn’t perfect, imo you can’t find a better version with a similar story line. if anyone knows anything similar but better written please lmk!!
Bail now! I had that thought through the whole book! I finally finished it because I had come so far… Walk away. That was a terrible book!!! It drags it’s feet the entire time.
I would finish it, but I wasn’t a satisfied customer with this one. Didn’t care for the ending, which I can deal with, but characters are well written and I like her other books
It depends. If you’re still on the first few pages, I’d say to continue. However, if you’ve spent 30 mins or so reading and hate the writing style, I’d suggest moving on to something more up your alley.
I thought it was fine. The majority of reviewers enjoy it. However, that doesn’t mean there aren’t books out there that you’d enjoy much more.

Loved it! If nothing else you can always just watch the movie, it was pretty good
I hated it. I couldn’t make it half way through lol. To each their own though.
Yes, all her books are great. Great writing!!
I didn’t like the last 1/3. The writing changed dramatically and felt like it was written by a different author
I hated it. I wish I hadn’t wasted time finishing it.
Ending stunk. Hours of my life I can’t get back
I liked most of it, but I absolutely hated the ending.
I couldnt finish it
Yes. It’s great
I didn’t even make it halfway thru, but I liked other books by her.
I loved it
It’s so awesome that the main character will piss you off, make you sad, angry and make you lose your mind all in one sitting.
I haaaaaaaaaaaated the book but really liked the movie. One of the few book to movie adaptations I say that about.
Loved it, yes.
I listened to it and would get out if my car so angry
Absolutely hated this book.
I agree. I know women like this,irl, and it’s not fun. I disliked this book also.
This is one of those books you either love or hate but there doesn’t seem to be an in between.
@Peggy I feel for you. I am really glad I don’t know anyone like her, I would get arrested for assault for slapping them silly.
I enjoyed it.
It’s good. She’s pretty psycho.
Best book

Couldn’t finish
Once I start a book I must finish. But the book does dragggg on.
100% worth it
Loved it
One of only two DNF books

I’d still say- keep reading.
P.S. The audio version was amazing!
YES!!!
Do it!

I enjoyed it. Didn’t particularly like the ending or the characters, but I enjoyed the story.
Please do it’s worth it!!
Yes. But maybe not as bedtime reading!

Bail now! I had that thought through the whole book! I finally finished it because I had come so far… Walk away. That was a terrible book!!! It drags it’s feet the entire time.

@Jayne I refuse to try any of her others because of that book =(
S j Watson ?
Me like Danielle
Don’t stop now…..

Don’t
I had it given to me as a gift. It doesn’t even crack the top 100 books I’ve read…..maybe bottom 15%…..but I did finish it.
I would finish it, but I wasn’t a satisfied customer with this one. Didn’t care for the ending, which I can deal with, but characters are well written and I like her other books
I didn’t like this book, but I finished it anyway
I wouldn’t have even had time to ask, I loved it! Blew me away
You just can’t stop reading Gone Girl… It’s a SIN…
It’s the best psychological thriller I’ve ever read…
Yes you should
It is the best thriller ever
Yes, continue.
Continue
It’s really good. You should continue.
Loved it
I had to wait until reaching page 189 to be hooked on it.. I loved this book?.
It’s really messed up. It takes a while to seem like a thriller. It’s not the greatest book, but it’s worth the read.
It depends. If you’re still on the first few pages, I’d say to continue. However, if you’ve spent 30 mins or so reading and hate the writing style, I’d suggest moving on to something more up your alley.

You should finish it. But don’t expect too much. The film is much better for me haha
Agreed on!!
Definitely worth it, n if I’m thinking of the right book, there’s a film with Ben aflek , think I’m thinking of right book,
Slow start but hooks you after the first couple chapters.
Continue!
I loved this book
It was absolutely mind blowing.
It was OK, took me a while to get through it.
If you don’t know anything its better
Couldn’t put it down quike enough.
Good if that is the style you like
i think that is the book i couldn’t really get into i tried to read it but i couldn’t really get into it right from the start hard to
I honestly didn’t like it as much as sharp objects but in general I don’t like Gillian Flynn’s writing style
I loved it.
