Why You Should Read Gone Girl Before Seeing the Movie

Gone Girl MovieGone Girl, the movie, comes out October 3, 2014.  That means you still have about three weeks to read the novel before you see the movie.  (Which you always, always should do.)

Think that’s not enough time?  Trust me, you’ll get it done.

I’m not a huge fan of thrillers, but I liked Gone Girl well enough.  The ending didn’t turn out like I thought – but I guess with this genre it shouldn’t.  Except, I expected…

Well, I don’t want to give anything away.  To see my full review, visit my friend Carol’s blog and tell me what you thought of Gone Girl, or if you plan to read it before the movie hits theaters.

Thanks!

  1. I read Gone Girl two years ago — on the plane to Mexico to visit the Pyramid of the Sun, that’s why I remember exactly when. I definitely agree — read the book first! I am looking forward to seeing the movie, but I’m not sure my husband will enjoy this one. Might have to make it a lady’s night out.

  2. Very intrigued by this movie and hope they get it right. I can see Ben Affleck getting the job done. This book had terrific writing and a story that kept me up too late. Too bad we couldn’t see it together!
