I was browsing around on Goodreads, one of my favorite websites. You rate, review, and shelve books and things like that. Anyway, I was looking at the page for the book Gone Girl and I was surprised to see that it has a great rating and glowing reviews, Personally, it is one of my least favorite books I've ever read, and I've read the entire Twilight series.
Frankly, I just found the entire cast of characters whiny, self-centered, dumb, and uninteresting. Then the end, oh my god don't even get me started. Like, look, life sucks and often the shitty people come out on top. I have to deal with that enough in my day to day life, I shouldn't have to read a book that shoves that reminder in my face in such a terrible way. Amy is the worst character ever written, even worse than Delores Umbridge, in my opinion. I just don't get why people were so enchanted by it. I mean, when I finished reading it, I felt dirty. Like, I felt bad, it was such a dissatisfying ending.
