Gone Girl

Some of my pluses and minuses from Gone Girl:

Pluses:
1. Amy's a Nutcase. There's nothing like a well written Nut, they just make for good reading.

2. The plot is unique. Amy starts as a likeable lovey-dovey wife and flips the story halfway through.

3. This book never put me to sleep. Not one nodding-off, so it really is a page turner.

Minuses:
1. Amy's plan of revenge is toeing on the line of implausible (The jar of vomit)

2. The writing gets too be pretty hipster or 'meta' or whatever you call it.

3. Amy 'gets away with it'. You have to read it to know what I mean. Desi should get a little justice.

Overall, the book lives up to it's hype. I'd give it 4 and a half stars.
