Pat C. asked this question about The Girl on the Train:
If I hated "Gone Girl" am I going to hate "The Girl on the Train"? Obviously not looking for someone with a crystal ball, just informed (like you've read both books and "they're not really that much alike") opinions.
Amanda Stevens I think it depends on why you hated Gone Girl. I haven't read that one, but I did read Sharp Objects and that was enough to keep me from reading Flynn…moreI think it depends on why you hated Gone Girl. I haven't read that one, but I did read Sharp Objects and that was enough to keep me from reading Flynn again. For me, The Girl on the Train was unlikable for the same reasons--namely the characters are psychological exaggerations. I gave it a 2-star review (the same rating I gave Sharp Objects).(less)
