Gone Girl


Book Review: By Krishna Sharma

Gillian Flynn thiks outside of the box,She is a proficient,spectacular author. Her writing is a consistaion of inscrutability,twist,lies,mask, secrets with nasty characters. Her way of storytelling makes a deep impact in reader's mind. She has every element in her book that must be present in any mystery book. 



Characters in Gone Girl- 
1.Nick Dunne 2.Amy Elliot Dunne 
3.Marybeth Elliot 4.Rand Elliot 
5. Margo Go Dunne. 6. Jim Gilpin 
7.Rhonda Boney. 8 Andie Hardy
9. .Tanner Bolt. 10. Desi Collings




Characters in a story makes the development of it and in Gillian's story every character perform the role well.The characters in this phycholgical mystery are amazing. The story has been described through two point of view. Readers will be surprised by the time the story get unfold.


At first the story seems a romantic one,the settings is in New York. The gorgeous people shares beutiful moments. They were celebrating their 5th year anniversary and suddenly the wife goes missing. The marriage goes terrible. Everything turns in a different way. The dark side of character has been presented fantastically. A man is accused of his wife's murder,she was missing. As we go more deep into story, secrets reveals,new twist and new mystery takes place. She have depicted the grey characters beautifully. 


The end of the story is unexpected. The last pages where the reader's question get answer are my favourite. Anyone who can read 1st 4/5 page or the 1st half of the book can't resist themselves reading the whole.  

This is crime-thriller genre with an unreliable narrator. 




The book was made a movie adaptation by director David Fincher in 2014 starring Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike.

This is the 10th year anniversary of this Wonderful Book. It took her three years (almost) to write this book. 

I personally could not put it down. Just got hooked with it.

‌•My mother had always told her kids: if you're about to do something, and you want to know if it's a bad idea, imagine seeing it printed in the paper for all the world to see.
