I try really hard to read the book before I see the movie or show. When I read that Sharp Objects was going to be a show on HBO I knew I had to hurry up and read the book. I have read Gone Girl and Dark Places by Gillian Flynn and really enjoyed both books. I was excited to read this book and it did not disappoint. Gillian Flynn is a master of mystery, darkness and twists.
Amazon Summary
Fresh from a brief stay at a psych hospital, reporter Camille Preaker faces a troubling assignment: she must return to her tiny hometown to cover the murders of two preteen girls. For years, Camille has hardly spoken to her neurotic, hypochondriac mother or to the half-sister she barely knows: a beautiful thirteen-year-old with an eerie grip on the town. Now, installed in her old bedroom in her family's Victorian mansion, Camille finds herself identifying with the young victims—a bit too strongly. Dogged by her own demons, she must unravel the psychological puzzle of her own past if she wants to get the story—and survive this homecoming.
