First Meeting Featured Book: Gone Girl

Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn

Reported by Ali Taylor

Report Highlights: 
  • Gillian Flynn actually has a PCH connection!  Her parents are longtime friends of Cathy Dobkin's parents. 
  • The novel presents an inside look at a toxic marriage, with two spouses that both lose their jobs in NYC working in the magazine industry.  They relocate to the fictional town of North Carthage, MO.  Those of you who have been to Northeast Missouri may find some descriptions quite familiar.
  • With plenty of plot twists, Gone Girl is a definite page-turner.
