I feel a need to clear my palate, so to speak. I started reading Jessica Knoll's Luckiest Girl Alive, and I saw right away at least three of the similarities to Gone Girl: a) the author is a magazine writer; b) the protagonist is a magazine writer; c) the protagonist is concerned with the need to appear perfect and to disguise her true feelings.
I felt I was looking for something else, so I picked up The Rumor by Elin Hilderbrand. I found the opening pages breezy, light and entertaining. However, as the plot thickens, it seems a little less light.
I'll continue with it for now.
