Just when you think you have it all figured out, wham! You don't. I didn't see it coming. Amazing writing keeps you hooked from page 1. Gillian Flynn knows her stuff, I am a big fan and this will not disappoint. I loved Gone Girl and was so happy when they made it a movie. I am very excited to see the adaptation of Sharp Objects on HBO. I could not put this book down. It's one of those books where you have to force yourself to stop reading so you don't read it in 24 hours. I tried to take my time but only lasted 4 days. If you are a fan of thrillers with great plot twists, you will not be disappointed.

Sharp Objects A Novel Gillian Flynn 9780307341549 Books Reviews

I’m really not sure I liked this book. Gone Girl was dark and evil and depressing, but it was so clever I still liked it. This one is a good story, it was well written, but I don’t know, I just didn’t like it too much. Maybe because it was such evil with children instead of adults, I’m not even sure, but it just wasn’t for me.
A deeply disturbing novel in the midwest. A reporter goes back to her hometown to cover a murder investigation. Along the way, she deals with her dispassionate mother and her strange otherworldly sister. As an adolescent, the main character cut herself as a means of coping with the death of another sister, literally carving words into her own flesh. The author uses these words to betray her characters inner thoughts, as she knows everyword on her body and they sometimes tingle bringing their meanings to life.

This is not Flynn's darkest novel, i firmly believe that Gone Girl is the most disturbing of the trio, but its darker than 'Dark places.' Here she dissects the pathologyof several townsfolk.

I thought there was one or two people it could have been through most of the novel, it was just a matter of understanding the other extraneous moments. The conclusion is rapid, but satisfying. In the end, everything falls into place and i dont think there is a hair or thread out of place.
I didn't know that I could actually feel my skin crawl , I thought this was just an expression but this is how this book mad me feel. Every sentence is a masterpiece - deep, dark and ironic. "Sometimes I think illness sits inside every woman, waiting for the right moment to bloom..." I was rushing to finish reading it before the HBO series but I also read that Gillians next novel due in 2021! What am I supposed to read until then?
This is an extremely dark book where the main character is a psychological mess who has recently checked out of a mental hospital and is struggling to cope with life while reporting on several child murders in her small Missouri hometown. The struggling Chicago paper she works for has sprung for one day at a hotel after which she must stay with her deeply troubled family. As the story unfolds, she has to deal with memories of her own miserable childhood, while addressing ongoing problems with her mother and younger sister. She is also continuously tempted to carve words on her own flesh, which is central to her psychological disorder and has already rendered her body hideous. As the story moves forward, the reader suspects the worst and when you get there the author gives you both barrels. This book is suspenseful and powerful, but it is not for everyone, and I think I will stay away from this author for a while. I still have to sleep at night and get up in the morning.
Sharp Objects written by Gillian Flynn published in 2006 is a psychological thriller about Camille Preaker, a Chicago-based reporter sent to her hometown in Wind Gap, Missouri to cover a story about the unsolved murder of a girl whose chase bears striking similarities with a murder a year earlier.
I heard about this book when HBO started advertising their 8-part mini-series starring Amy Adams based on the book. I’m a fan of Amy Adams, so I wanted to watch it, but before watching it, I thought I’d read the rather short (less than 300 pages) book. Apparently this was the author’s first published novel. She is probably more famously known for writing Gone Girl which was made into a popular 2014 big screen movie.
Sharp Objects is a twisted psychological thriller. There is a lot of getting into Camille’s (messed up) head. The story is more about her and her relationships with her mother and half-sister than it is about the girls’ murders. This story is fraught with all sorts of aberrant behavior sex with teenagers, drug use, alcoholism, bullying, self-mutilation, child abuse, and murder.
Throughout the story, Camille battles with her past and her inner mind to keep from succumbing to the vortex of despair brought on by being in the sphere of influence of her deranged mother.
At first, I had a tough time reading and understanding the author’s writing style. Don’t use this text to teach proper English grammar! Once I grew accustomed to that style, the story was strangely gripping. Camille clearly has deep psychological problems. She is sucked into engaging in dangerous behaviors during her visit to Wind Gap.
As a psychological thriller, there isn’t much action and there is not much to the core story. Most of the interest is generated by learning about Camille and watching her get caught in the whirlpool of buried emotions that swell as she relives her childhood. It’s torturous to watch Camille endure things that would send me screaming back to Chicagothat’. Instead, she sticks to it until she finds the real killer and reconciles with her past.
The author does an excellent job of describing the setting and the characters. One noticeable writing characteristic is that she uses “like” (as in simile) in practically every other paragraph which, on the one hand, provides a way to poetically describe something and on the other hand, is annoyingly repetitious.
One brief comment about the TV series (since this blog post is a book review, not a TV review). My suggestion is to either watch the TV series OR read the book; not both.
Just when you think you have it all figured out, wham! You don't. I didn't see it coming. Amazing writing keeps you hooked from page 1. Gillian Flynn knows her stuff, I am a big fan and this will not disappoint. I loved Gone Girl and was so happy when they made it a movie.
