Effects of Gone Girl on the Human Brain
PART 1 PART 2
Surprise, surprise. Amy is a psycho. She is a lying, scheming, evil genius sociopath. Prior to this knowledge, you probably thought you had this book all figured out. You most definitely had your theoretical suspect, and for the vast majority of you it was probably Nick. I bet you thought "oh poor Amy" and "she seems like such a sweet girl, annoying, yes, but sweet!" Well guess what? These thoughts are WRONG. The phrase "poor Amy" should be illegal, and using the word "sweet" to describe her is nothing but comical. After reading the first chapter of Part 2, that was it for me. My brain could not handle state of shock that Gillian Flynn managed to put me in. It exploded. "Surprised" is an understatement. This ripped everything apart that I thought I knew, because I realized I really didn't know anything at all. The simultaneous awe and horror I experienced can be compared to that of the moment I realized that Blue from "Blue's Clues" was a girl. My life fell apart, and nothing was ever the same. Then, all too soon, the next bomb dropped: "diary Amy" was a fake. My life was in ruins and my brain had disintegrated to ash. It was just too much. The pure genius and unexpectedness of it unhinged my sanity completely, so I did the only thing I knew how to in such a situation: I kept reading.
