Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn

I read this August 2016.
I found a cipy in a charity shop.  I had wanted to read it for a while, I have seen the film.

I enjoyed this book, plot line is a married couple, new yourk yuppie types, loose their jobs, go to live in the South where Nick grew up and wher his family are.  Wife is Amazing Amy ( a set of cheildren's books her parents wrote) , talented, spoilt, obssesive.
One day Nick comes home to find his wife missing.  Signs of  a struugle, looks like murder or kidnap.
Story reloved round the search and also the story form Amy's piont of view...
Very good, complicated plot.
The only thing I would say is the chapters written in the Nick's voice sometimes , only sometimes, don't sound enough like a man's writing them.
But I really enjoyed both the book and the film
9/10
