The book shocked me. It was yet another one of those that everyone around me was reading and loving it and then I pick it up and I just don't love it like everyone else. Don't get me wrong, it was a good book, but I just wish Nick would have really killed Amy, especially after we find out she's alive.
The movie has a lot of really good actors: Ben Afflack, Neil Patrick Harris. Big names. It was really good, but I also didn't love it, it was just meh to me.

I completely agree. For me, both good but not great. Those big name actors were not the right fit for me. This happens so often where the actor just doesn't measure up to the character I've conjured up in my imagination.mommyreadsbooks wrote:The book vs the movie.

As soon as I finished reading Gone Girl I went straight onto reading all of Gillian Flynn's other books and they were all very good.

That said, this is still a good movie adaptation compared to some others I've seen in the recent times.
