Historia
On a warm summer morning in North Carthage, Missouri, it is Nick and Amy Dunne’s fifth wedding anniversary. Presents are being wrapped and reservations are being made when Nick’s clever and beautiful wife disappears. Husband-of-the-Year Nick isn’t doing himself any favors with cringe-worthy daydreams about the slope and shape of his wife’s head, but passages from Amy's diary reveal the alpha-girl perfectionist could have put anyone dangerously on edge.

Truly a Jack and Jill tale with a twist
Revisado: 04-08-15
Gillian Flynn, profound mind, deep thinking, incredibly well organized thicker. Able to entertain in story form, able to educate as well. Female reader was excellent. Loved the first person thoughts, first of Nick, then of Amy . . . Back and forth, building a captive story.

Historia
The debut psychological thriller that will forever change the way you look at other people's lives. Every day the same. Rachel takes the same commuter train every morning and night. Every day she rattles down the track, flashes past a stretch of cozy suburban homes, and stops at the signal that allows her to daily watch the same couple breakfasting on their deck. She’s even started to feel like she knows them. Jess and Jason, she calls them. Their life - as she sees it - is perfect. Not unlike the life she recently lost.

Hawkins captures the reader's interest on every page. Story gets better with each chapter. Cathartic for every rejected or victimized lover!

Oh God, the Emotional Joy of this Listen!
Revisado: 02-04-12
Would you listen to Sarah Thornhill again? Why?
I felt myself walking along not wanting to miss even one sentence Sarah Thornhill spoke. So refreshing, the insight of author Kate Grenville into human nature. A fast paced story. The editing is near perfect. The tale is sprinkled with details that cause a smile, anger, concern . . . I was drawn into their lives. Thank you Kate Grenville and especially the reader Emma Fielding. She is just too wonderful.
What did you like best about this story?
As the story moved on, the remarks of quirky human foibles were so genuine. The interaction of Emma with her childhood friend Jack (and later lover) was so lovely. The characters were so clearly developed . . . there values, their morality or immorality. These issues were the story, but not in a stuffy way.
Which character – as performed by Emma Fielding – was your favorite?
Emma Fielding talked for all characters, but her beautiful Australian speak as she expressed herself as Sarah Thornhill, Oh, her portrayal was beyond convincing. She WAS Sarah Thornhill. There is no empty spaces in this book.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Yes, indeed. Sarah Thornhill became my friend, I loved to listen to her talk (actually Emma Fielding) and felt her moments of emotion, desire to be free, suffer emotional heart ache and disappointment.
Any additional comments?
I look forward to Grenville's next story. I am sure she will be a favorite for many.
