I agree Lisa. :) They are both crazy people and truly deserve each other!

EXACTLY! I feel the same way :D

I thought it helped me see the rest of the book as a satire, an exaggeration of gender stereotypes. In the end, they end up pretty normal, a couple struggling to be what the other wants, which is sort of the definition of marriage, in a twisted way.

In a word: Yes. Pissed me off.

Yes! Rather disappointing. I agree with Lisa that they deserved each other - to a certain extent. That said, I don't think they're equally malevolent. I was expecting a different ending. I did enjoy the book!

I actually thought it worked well. But here's my question...how would you have ended it?

I would have left Amy with the creepy Desi...forever and found some way of Nick getting out of his predicament. I found Amy totally repellent from the start. But the ending as it stands is pure living hell for both of them (did someone actually think it was a resolution??)Pity the child born into that hideous and inescapable environment.

It'll be interesting to see what David Fincher does with the movie. Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike in the roles.

I agree. Poor kid
