The Girl on the Train

When I finished reading this I couldn't help but compare it to Gone Girl. Lots of action and suspense, an unreliable narrator, twists, and a super quick read. It wasn't (in my opinion) as well written as Gone Girl but I still enjoyed it. I definitely enjoyed the ending more than I did GG. I'm glad I read it--there was so much hype about it!--but I'd say it's kind of middle of the pack as far as these "types" of novels go. There was enough to keep me reading but I feel like it's one I'll forget about sooner rather than later.
Since I mentioned it, my review of Gone Girl is here.
