Gone Girl, by Gillian Flynn, tells the story of Nick and Amy Dunne, a couple married for five years. On the morning of their fifth anniversary, Amy mysteriously disappears. Soon the police send out a notice of her disappearance and the whole town is getting attention on the media. Of course, if something happens to a wife, everyone's suspicion is aimed toward the husband. The discovery of incriminating clues along with Nick's emotionless facade soon turn the town against him and leads everyone to believe he murdered his wife.
Gone Girl is honestly one of the best books I have ever read. The author creates a brilliant, twisted plot that will leave you on the edge of your seat throughout the whole book. Each character is multi-dimensional, with so many layers to unravel. Everything about the book keeps you guessing. I would recommend this book to people who enjoy the mystery and suspense genres. Gone Girl is not a read you will forget anytime soon.
