Book Review
Several students recommended this book this past year and I was finally able to find time to read it. I have not seen the movie but knowing Ben Affleck played the lead, Nick Dunne, I saw his face the entire time I read the book…..not bad…I like his face. Nick and Amy had some difficult times….both lost their jobs in New York. They moved back to Nick’s home town in Missouri. Nick and his sister open a bar using Amy’s money. The book takes some good twists. I liked the book but would have liked a different ending.
