I agree that it's a great book, but with the characters, it wasn't so much that they needed to be like me...but, there was something that just seemed off. Hmm, it's as if they became stale after a while. No new surprises, no redeeming qualities. I did sympathize quite a bit with Patty and I connected a bit with Lyle, but even their characters became stale to me too. I wonder if that makes sense. LOL Anyhoo, lemme know when you have your review up. I'd love to read it. It's interesting to see different perspectives on the same title. :D Hey Lauren,

I actually really loved this story and am a big fan of Gillian Flynn's now. I can see how some people wouldn't like various aspects, but I found it all very interesting and I actually did sympathize with various characters...I don't have to feel like they are like me in any way to like the book, so maybe that's why too... Overall, great book in my opinion, but I enjoyed reading your review. :) -Lauren I have a review of this on my blog as well.
