Sharp Objects

A good thriller; twisty but not manipulative, I liked quite a few of the author's phrases and metaphors throughout, and a pretty good take on small town America (a little dramatic, but hey, it's a drama).

SPOILERS:

I thought the central reveals about her relationship with her mother and the younger sisters was handled really well; everything we know about this mom leads us to believe she's capable of things like this, but we don't see it coming. A good gradual reveal as the protagonist figures it out.
