Amy loved their life in New York and stubbornly resents the idea of moving to Nick’s hometown. This causes their relationship to become strained even further.

Review

During the end of the first year of its publication, it had sold more than 2 million copies. Flynn provides a thoroughly gripping plot to the readers filled with twists and turns. She ensures that the readers are engaged from the beginning and completely hooked to the plot.

The unreliable storytellers in her plot Nick and Amy are used to great extent to add to the uncertainty of the story. The author expertly moves the story forward swiftly and keeps the readers immersed in it. The plot, characters, and the narration style are all concise and sharp. This is a highly recommended read for the readers and they must not miss it at any cost.
