- Latest Review: "Omega Pathogen" by J.G. Hicks, Jr.
As someone who is not a fan of authors like Stephen King...I actually thoroughly enjoyed this suspenseful thriller. It is a rare talent to piece together an in-depth plot while ensuring character development. Many times it seems that authors choose between the character and the plot at hand. However, this is not the case for Gone Girl. Truly, a fantastic read and a challenge to try something new even if you have never liked the genre before.

at first I was a little skeptical, it's not really my cup of tea regarding the genre , but against my better judgement I crawled up in bed with a hot cup of tea and I started reading it, it certainly got me hooked
Amy Dunn disappears on the day of her 5th wedding anniversary. gradually some evidence started to pop up suggesting that her husband, Nick, somewhat involved.
The first part of the story reveals the truth about their marriage, what everybody thought it was a perfect marriage, wasn't that perfect after all.
the second part was my favorite, you get to know the twisted sides of the characters and the mystery starts to unravel.
I must add, I loved the ending . I thought it was perfect match for the story, rather than some people's suggested -alternative ending.
I definitely recommend the book for anyone who enjoys suspense thriller/ domestic fiction.
Have fun

My only critique is the ending. It seemed like once Flynn had revealed all her tricks she ungracefully backed out of the story.
