Book Review: Gone Girl

On Nick and Amy's fifth wedding anniversary, Amy goes missing. In the investigation that follows, Nick admits lying to the police, and a diary is discovered that details Amy's growing fear of her husband. But what really happened the day Amy disappeared?

Gone Girl is a novel that alternates between Nick and Amy's voices, but nothing is as it seems. Lies build upon lies and secrets are discovered, so that this tale of a slowly crumbling marriage becomes a fascinating web of deceit and insanity. What is Nick lying about? Is Amy as naive as she seems? The questions - and the suspense - keep building to the very end. -Michelle (Sunset)
