Loved Gone Girl? Then you’ll definitely want to check out these twisty thrillers!
I read Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn a few years ago and became an instant fan of her work. The movie wasn’t bad, but the book is so much better. I remember how shocked I was at the twist and how I didn’t see it coming. I couldn’t put this book down. That’s a sign of a good book when you are up in the wee hours of the night reading. Who needs sleep anyways?!
Since then, I’ve devoured all of Gillian Flynn’s other books (Dark Places and Sharp Objects). They were also captivating reads. I’ve been on a mission to find other books to read that are similar to Gone Girl. I want the same keep-you-up-all-night experience.
10 Books to Read if you loved Gone Girl
- It’s Always the Husband by Michelle Campbell
- Into the Water by Paula Hawkins
- The Perfect Stranger by Megan Miranda
- The Good Girl by Mary Kubica
- The Ex by Alafair Burke
- Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty
- The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware
- The Silent Wife by A.S.A. Harrison
- Pretty Girls by Karin Slaughter
- Luckiest Girl Alive by Jessica Knoll
I’m anxiously awaiting Gillian Flynn’s next novel, but until then, I can find my mystery fix with these novels. My TBR list is LONG, but that’s ok. The more books in my life, the better. Reading a good book transports you away to another world and in the case of these mysteries, a dark and scary one.
