Still a favorite. The characters are devilish and horrible and thorough all at once. Top tier beach read.

Creepy, but a little too short to explore its themes and characters. But, certainly no filler.

Paced well. Loved the frame, just like I did with Gone Girl. Characters were sad, in a good way. I liked the darkness of the whole thing, that's nice once in a while.

I liked it less than Gone Girl. The good, deep characterization was there, but some of the other themes I cared for less. Definitely a creepier story, too. The mystery was less compelling and the book sort of read like a haze (which could have easily been a creative decision). Not bad, good easy brutal vacation reading, but not her best.

A battle of sociopaths, great twists, believable characters. Loved it.
