Gone Girl – 100 pages in and LOVING it!

I started to read Gone Girl, as I posted recently, and let me just say: I LOVE IT! I’m one hundred pages in so far and it’s just amazing. I’ve been so busy this past week that I’ve only had the chance to read a few chapters at night before bed, but so far so good! I’m really looking forward to having a binge reading session, because it’s such a page turner. When I put it down at night I almost get mad at myself for it. In the beginning of the book, I was very Team Nick, but now….not so much. I don’t think Nick went so far as to hurt Amy in any way….but I really am beginning to think that he had something to do with her disappearance. Every time I turn the page, he’s either lying to the police, talking smack about Amy’s family money, or Amy’s work ethic. Nick seems like such a bitter guy. I feel like he’s extremely unstable as well. All of these combined negatives about him are leading me to dislike every single thing he does, because I can’t tell if he’s lying or not now. I love the way Gillian Flynn alternates the chapters between Nick’s real life and Amy’s diary. It creates an almost back and forth banter between the two as each chapter goes by. It also makes it impossible to not read Amy’s diary entries after finishing up a chapter with Nick! I’m really looking forward to delving deeper into this book, because I feel like I’m just scratching the surface of all of the crazy stuff that’s about to happen!
