I just finished reading the latest book of Gilliam Fynn, a Kansas born writer (http://gillian-flynn.com/about-gillian/) titled "Gone Girl" (2012); a large book of almost 500 pages. Before that
I read her two previous books "Sharp Objects" (2006) and Dark Places (2009).
It was by chance that I got introduced to her work- someone on the 6th floor of the Fine Arts Building, left a copy of Dark Places on the free table. As I did not know the author, I decided to pick it up as my traveling companion reading material.
I got taken by her writing from the first pages I read. Her writing has a way to engaging the reader to the point that you need to finish the book right away! Her plots are not simple, at times confusing, complicated stories. Her characters are emotional/psychological troubled people that force you to have a response, keeps you on your toes, suspense feels your lungs and suddenly you find yourself holding your breath.
Worth the reading!
