all three of Gillian Flynn's books, Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn Gone Girl, Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn Sharp Objects, and Dark Places by Gillian Flynn Dark Places are disturbing!! lol!! She sure does have a wicked imagination.

They're actually making Gone Girl and Dark Places into movies. Ben Affleck will play Nick in Gone Girl (2014) and Charlize Theron stars in Dark Places (2014)

In my opinion, Sharp Objects, is the best one!! It is really wacko, but I definitely recommend it!!


message 2369: by Bruna (new)

Bruna (bruns) | 7 comments I m about to start Sharp Objects today. I gave Gone Girl 3 stars but only wanted to give 2 1/2 because I didn't like the ending.

Katie.g | 129 comments Read quite a few good ones recently. Addicted to You by Krista Richie was raw, emotional romance. I really connected with the characters and can't wait to read the next one.

I've also read Steelheart (dystopian) and The Hero of Ages (fantasy) by Brandon Sanderson. Both were fantastic reads.
