Goodreads Book Review - Sharp Objects

Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I'm going to have to keep this mercifully (for me, and maybe you) short because I'm not feeling very well. I'm starting to really like Flynn's writing; he way she gets into her main character's head through her first-person narration is terrific. What makes it better is that she still manages to give her other characters great characterization, something not every writer can pull off in a first-person novel. I also really enjoyed how I thought early on I had the killer picked only to have her fool me once and then fool me again back to my original thought. A very clever, entertaining read.
