Its Wednesday and I'm reading.... Gone Girl.
At first I was like "eh, I don't need to follow suit and read it like everyone else". But then I saw the trailer and was like "huh". Hence my journey with Gone Girl. I may be 120 pages into it, but for some reason I am reading every, single, word. I am intrigued to know how its going to end.
Is it all just some kind of anniversary riddle like the previous anniversaries?
Why is Flynn not getting to the riddles quicker? Like one every 50 pages or so and I mean come on, I want to be able to read faster so I can get to the end. But there's stupid work and sleep in the way of that.
Why did Amy's parents not have money like 2 years ago and needed $600k to get out of financial ruin (excuse me but $600k? For real? I'd take a measly $2k and call it a day if someone wanted to give it to me. But I'm getting off topic) but then have enough money to help with the search and do whatever possible when she goes missing?! Maybe that'll all come clear later in the book.
Like I said I'm not very far into it, but from the movie trailer, Nick is the one who did it, or thats what everyone thinks. I dont see how from where I'm at, but it's always the spouse. (SN: dont ever get married... ever)
I think I like Amy's character, and then I dont. She doesnt want to be the whiner. I would like to think that I would be that in a relationship, but I dont want to put myself second anymore. So for Amy to just let Nick play poker without telling her and they were supposed to meet up for dinner is just crazy to me. Like he couldnt call? Text? Something? I know how I wouldve been sad and confused but at the same time not wanting him to know that it hurt, and I think that wouldve caused friction in our relationship. Maybe her never saying anything, or being compliant and obedient is what ruined them. They were good, and then they weren't. At what point do you have to stop and say "Okay, its not okay to just not do what we planned and NOT tell me?" At what point is it okay to tell the spouse or friend or lover exactly how it is we feel without reprecussion? I always feel for the reprecussion before I say anything. I dont want my words thrown in my face simply because I said them, but at the same time, if I cant say them, then we shouldnt... be.
However, in reading what little of the book I have thus far, I am intrigued.
Plus, I want a relationship with riddles and shit. Something to keep it going and make me think.
Hopefully by next Wednesday I will be done with this book and well onto another. Any ideas for the next book?
