3.5 starI read the book a few days ago and the reason the review is kinda late is coz whenever I thought of the book my mind went blank for some reason.I started the book thinking 254 pages, it will be a breeze, but it wasn't, the book took me so much longer than I expected, to get into but as the story went on and became more suspenseful it sped up.There are times while reading a book when I feel bored or smthg I read its reviews to make me more excited for it and almost every review for [b:Sharp Objects 18045891 Sharp Objects Gillian Flynn https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1475695315l/18045891.SY75.jpg 3801] mentioned a huge twist. So while reading the last chapter I was so disappointed I thought oh that's it?! That's the huge twist? Not much of a twist there, and then the epilogue came and I was SHOOK. Didn't expect it.Also forgot to mention this but the twist was put in such a way that you don't realize it? I'm putting it as a question because as soon as I realized the “twist” I reread that part a few times and then only got it. So well written and it just sneaks up on you.However I must say I wasn't a huge fan of our protagonist, Camille I can't put a finger on what exactly I didn't like about her but it left me with a bad taste in my mouth.Well with that being said I'm glad I finally got around to reading [b:Sharp Objects 18045891 Sharp Objects Gillian Flynn https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1475695315l/18045891.SY75.jpg 3801] and now the only book I have left to read by [a:Gillian Flynn 2383 Gillian Flynn https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1232123231p2/2383.jpg] is [b:Dark Places 5886881 Dark Places Gillian Flynn https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1354988288l/5886881.SY75.jpg 6873353].
