Gone Girl

Okay, first of all, I grabbed Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl because I'd heard it was fun, but I didn't know anything about it other than that it was a twisty thriller. So imagine my glee when I discovered it's centrally about a puzzle hunt! I had so much fun with this book! If you like puzzles and puzzle hunts, this is the thriller for you.

I really enjoyed it and have lots of thoughts, but I think that it probably is better here if I actually use a cut tag to hide the spoilers. I know, I know. Maybe it's the post-Yom Kippur trying not to be as much of an asshole as usual. Feel free to engage even if you haven't read the book, if you want.
