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.
Jeannine Yes most probably. I had better mention that I disliked both books. When there are so many worthy novels to read these 2 books are a waste of time. I …moreYes most probably. I had better mention that I disliked both books. When there are so many worthy novels to read these 2 books are a waste of time. I was given 'The Girl on the Train' to read over the weekend. I felt as if I was reading a novel by a teenager with a limited vocabulary and not a great imagination. The characters were predictable and insipid...And it is not much of a thriller as about half way through the book it becomes obvious who the murderer is.I didn't waste my time and read the entire book as I ended up turning to the back of the book and yep I was right!(less)
