So far, I've only read Gone Girl, but it was so wild that I bought two more of her books! She's a great author.

I love all her books, to me, they're too few!! She needs to write more. My favorite has to be Sharp Objects, after finishing that one, I had to call my mom and tell her I loved her. Next to that is Gone Girl, then Dark Places. She introduced me to loving unlikeable main characters!

I have read Sharp Objects twice and Gillian Flynn's writing in it so impeccable and the plot is so dark, I have been a fan of her ever since!

I only read Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn and it was an absolute suprise. The book was a gift and I've never read a novel like this before. It was so intriguing and so surreal. Not at all like common romantic novels. What a fun book to read.

Yes, she is best known for her dark and psychological thrillers. She has a distinctive writing style and her novels dive deep into dark and gritty themes such as relationships that tend to be dysfunctional, psychological manipulation, and the darker aspects of human nature.
She explores the complexities of human behavior and emotions in a different style. Her works must be read by everyone who struggles with their stubborn mind! So almost everyone during these hard times.

Gone Girl was one of the best-selling novels and it was worth it!
Also, there was Sharp Objects, but it was somehow good, not perfect.

I have read Sharp Objects, Dark Places and Gone Girl penned by Gillian Flynn. I can vouch that she is a brilliant good psychological thriller writer. I like Sharp Objects and Dark Places better than Gone Girl. She also wrote a novella entitled The Grown Up published in 2014 and it was pretty good.

I've never met a Gillian Flynn novel that I didn't enjoy.
