If you liked Gone Girl, read this other Flynn novel that was written before Gone Girl. It's not quite Gone Girl caliber, but it does make you wonder about what goes on in Gillian Flynn's mind. It's the story of Libby Day, a now 30 year old woman who lived through a mass killing of her family. Her brother Ben went to jail for the murders, but now 22 years later, Libby starts asking questions that may prove that Ben was not, in fact, the killer. It's intense for sure, but not quite as over the top as Gone Girl.
I laughed when I was reading her Thank You section at the end of the book--she thanked her husband for knowing what goes through her mind AND still wanting to sleep next to her each night. Hilarious!
A good read. Now I can watch the movie!
Happy reading!
