The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins

Oh, okay. Now, I get what all the fuss is about!

This book had me wanting to leave work, sneak off from parties, and otherwise abandon reality in order to read just a few more pages. Enough has been said about The Girl on the Train elsewhere though, so the only thing I have to add to all of the praise for Hawkins’ book is that it also made me want to go back and re-watch The Fall. And that’s a great thing.

This post is part of #MySummerOfMysteries, a project to immerse myself in mysteries, thrillers, crime writing, and whodunits. For each book I finish, I’m posting brief thoughts and reflections here. Please note that these are not intended as full reviews. To view my reading progress throughout the summer, click here.
