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.

I wasn't a fan of Gone Girl. I thought it was way too long, it was like it was two books in one. The Girl on the Train was fantastic! The pace was perfect. Not to mention the tone of the book keeps the intrigue going. I highly recommend The Girl on the Train. I haven't seen the movie yet, though I've heard is great. If I were you, I would definitely read the book first and then watch the movie if that's something you wish to do.(less)
