GONE GIRL – Gillian Flynn
oh what a book. What a book. WHAT A BOOK. My mouth was gaping right till the very end because I’ve never read a book that left me so emotionally shattered and verbally speechless. Gone Girl messed with my mind, turned me out and flipped me over. If it were a movie, it would be…
