Gillian Flynn: Gone Girl
Recommended with reservations. I was two-thirds captivated. Even with the reservations, though, I admire Flynn for her daring.Hilary Mantel: Bring Up the Bodies
It's possible that Hilary Mantel has supplanted Iris Murdoch as my favorite author.Tana French: Broken Harbor
Not as weird as her first two novels, but I was still totally riveted.
