After enjoying Gone Girl, by Flynn I was a bit disappointed in this novel. The story started out strong, but the end
felt rushed, which is similar to my feelings about Gone Girl. The characters
were well developed, however I was surprised to see an author, especially a
female author, write a story with such weak female characters. While she
developed them well; not a single female character was strong. In fact, they
were way too weak for me. It would have helped if at least one minor female
character was strong willed. Even though
I was not completely enthralled with this novel, I will probably still read her
other novels and give her a chance to redeem herself.
