by Gillian Flynn
It's a rare book that has me (a) almost giving up in the beginning--it was just too dull--and (b) nearly crying at the end, and (c) laughing out loud at the "last word." And another thing--when I listen to a narrator for too long, I find myself picking up patterns of their speech. A British narrator has me dropping my haitches; a few German words have me interspersing my speech with Dunderkopf's. So this book, much as I hate to admit it, added some very annoying speech patterns into my conversational repertoire.
Hint: most started with a b- or f-.
In spite of that, I heartily recommend it. It is truly a head trip. Just don't take it too seriously.
