I'm normally a fantasy reader but my book club was reading this so I joined in. By the end of this book I hated everyone except Margot!
The twist didn't change how I felt about Nick but it did certainly make the book suddenly more interesting. Up until that point I was struggling. Still, by the end I enjoyed it even though the ending was very anticlimactic, I think it was appropriate.

When it comes to psychological thrillers (or any thriller for that matter), I have little to no experience. So keep in mind that I had no benchmark, no means of comparison for this book.

Overall, this book was great! Gone Girl had a riveting plot that kept me intrigued the whole time, complex (meaning totally messed up) characters, and it was packed with enough emotion to make me tear up a bit.

You could call me a kid, or even worse, a teenager, but I never actually related to the characters. Mai

I finished the book in less than 24 hours. Having found it an absolute enthralling read, I was openly rooting for Amy because I believe there can be nothing worse than being cheated upon. Yes, even if your wife is a psychopath, you DO NOT cheat with her. Divorce her, maybe, but cheating is a no go. I sort of feel Nick deserved everything he had coming his way.

Good easy reading. Seriously shocking twists nearing the end of the book!

Decidedly Darker than Movie. Amy seems sick, but Nick is still clueless
