Sweet nothings are common between any couple but the couple in Gillian Flynn's New York Times Bestseller book, Gone Girl they tend to go way beyond than sweet and nothings. Nick and Amy, the leads in the book, understand each other to an extreme extent where one advertently controls the other’s impulses though they are far away from one another. It starts off like any other film which doesn't impress you until the twist is introduced. Ms. Flynn cajoles you in thinking that you are guessing everything right until halfway through the story. And then suddenly, she injures your confidence with a surly truth; in fact the truth is far more horrific and crimson than the plot itself. From then on the plot becomes vindictive and captivating. 

It takes a very special discipline to wait and execute a perfect thriller plot and Gillian Flynn undeniably has the discipline and intelligence! Gone Girl was the best fiction story for the year 2012 and as per Wikipedia it has been almost universally praised in numerous publications including but not limited to the New Yorker, New York Times, Time, Publisher's Weekly, Entertainment Weekly, Chatelaine, People magazine, and USA Today.
