“[An] absorbing thriller.”

“Ms. Flynn writes dark suspense novels that anatomize violence without splashing barrels of blood around the pages…But as in her other books, Ms. Flynn has much more up her sleeve than a simple missing-person case.

“Flynn has shown her skills at gripping tales and enhanced character studies since her debut Sharp Objects, which garnered an Edgar nod, among other nominations. Her second novel Dark Places made numerous best of lists. Gone Girl reaffirms her talent.”

“Brilliantly constructed and consistently absorbing…[Gone Girl], which twists itself into new shapes, works as a page-turning thriller, but it’s also a study of marriage at its most destructive.”

“A good story presents a reader with a problem that has to be resolved and a few surprises along the way. A great story gives a reader a problem and leads you along a path, then dumps you off a cliff and into a jungle of plot twists, character revelations and back stories that you could not have imagined. Gone Girl does just that.”
