Stephen King can be so tough on books and authors (he DRAGGED 50 Shades) but he put GG on his best of the year list:
Quote:
3. Gone Girl
Gillian Flynn
Amy's gone, but is she dead? And if so, did husband Nick kill her? Flynn keeps her cards close and plays them out one at a time, alternating the point of view between the participants in this marriage made in hell. It's a plot Agatha Christie could have conceived; what elevates it is the clarity of Flynn's observation and the Franzen-like richness of her prose.
