See allWhat a great suspense, a tragedy really. This was my first Gillian Flynn and certainly not my last. The characters are really well written and the plot, of corse is great. I really, really felt for Libby, that pore girl, and for all the Day family. With both points of view, present and past, Flynn gives us the depth of the misery that the Day family lived before the murders and the misery that Libby is living now. We get to see the impact of it all outside the Day family as well. The buildup of the suspense is good. The last 150 pages were a big surprise to me. I had my mind set for the ending of the story but found out I way off.
Although this was a good read, I gave it a 4 out of 5 stars because, to me, some reactions and even some decisions were a little farfetch. I don't want to spoil anything, but sometimes I thought, what the... But all in all, it was very good.
I don't know if this is meant to be a trilogy, but if it is, it's the worst ending I have ever read. It's a shame because I loved the first and second volume. Other then the ending it's very good, but man, I can't get past what Victoria decided to have happen at the end!
This was my second time reading this book and it was even better then the first time. A true peace of art!
