Great list! How did you make it so long without reading Gone Girl? The hype was huge!
ReplyDeleteI know, and my brother kept threatening to ruin it for me because he watched the movie and couldn't believe that I wanted to read the book before watching the movie! I just had to avoid reading anyone's reviews so that I didn't see anyone's spoilers.
DeleteOoh Gillian Flynn is one I was going to try in 2016 and never did. I'll have to carry that over into 2017. :) And Riggs- I keep going back and forth on if I want to read Peregrine's or not.
ReplyDeleteI just read a fantastic adult mystery by Linda Castillo. I already reserved the next 2 books in the series. Loved seeing who you read who are new to you too.
