Post 3 Book 1

After reading Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn, how did you personally feel about the story? Where you frustrated with the ending? Did you wish it ended a different way? How would you feel if you had the chance to read the rest of Nick and Amy’s story? Well guess you are in luck since we have his personal notes that helped him bring justice to his own story. After their son is born, Nick watches Amy intently to find a hole in her nightmare of a fake kidnapping, to get what he really wants. And that’s what you’re in store to read.

As the reader going through the story of the back and forth of the love story of Nick and Amy, you will get to read their life after “Amy’s kidnapping” and the life after their son’s birth.  As the story ends you are disappointed with Nick just giving it all up to be a happy father with the “love” of his life; he knows his wife has killed Desi (a previous friend of Amy’s) just to cover up her own story. She was covering up was all a plot to frame Nick for killing her because he cheated on her. There’s no true way of telling what she will do, knowing that everything she’s done just to throw others under the bus to make her seem “amazing”. She knew how to manipulate people: “I’m serious man, I bet whatever she’s got cooked up for you its drum-tight.” She knew what she was doing: “It won’t work. She thinks of everything. I mean, she knows the police procedure cold.” The reader will get the addition of this mystery and see the twists and turns she pulls with Nick. But he learns that he will need to keep up a façade to get the dirt that he will need to get back at her for attempting to frame him for her death. At the end of the book Nick realizes that he’s “finally a match for Amy… It’s a story [he] can live with. Hell, at this point, [he] can’t imagine my story without Amy.” And Amy is slowly finding out that he is right, and that he’s getting really good at playing her own game. He will need to find a loop in her story that makes her look guilty and proves to the police she was the one truly doing this to him. He’s staying to keep track of her. His true reasoning for staying with Amy is for his son, knowing that Amy is a complete psychopath; he needs to be there for their child’s sake. He learns that Amy is a weak point after the birth, she is busy with the new born that she isn’t watching what she is doing while around Nick. She is emotional and isn’t as careful and three steps ahead as she used to be.

Now Nick it ahead of her, he uses her disadvantage to get into her things looking for details she’s hidden that will be evidence against her. He knows to be more careful from when he was cheating on her with Andie; he knows she’s very good at finding out things that she wants to know. “I’m getting so much better at it. I will stay close to her until I can bring her down. I’m the only one left that can bring her down,” this is where the whole idea where this new story is coming from. The idea is going to be similar to the original reading and will be based off of the original style of Gone Girl; it will be a shorter story but still keep you on your toes. It will need keep the audience in suspense. The story will be about Nick slowly accumulating what he needs, its up to him to punish his wife. He will have to go through this while raising his son along with her and keeping The Bar open with his sister.

This idea will get a lot of attention because myself and other readers agree that Amy doesn’t truly deserves what she got in the end of the book in terms of being free and forgotten for what he did by Nick and the police. This will be a short continuation that will be mainly from the perspective of Nick with some writings from Amy to keep with the books style of the two perspectives. This will broaden the audiences reading this book because it will please what the readers want. When these chapters come out the public from the previous audience of Gone Girl will read it and then be very pleased with it passing on the word to their friends. And then these people will then be forced to read the original Gone Girl and then to the continuation of the book, knowing that there’s more to the story.

Post 2 what is a book

A book is something to read to imagine new things. A book is created to express the part of the author’s imagination or life experiences. A book has many parts to it. The front and back cover, everyone is unique to its story. Then there’s the spine of the book that holds all the pages together, telling you again what the title of the book is and the author’s name. Inside there’s the numerous pages that express the title of the book over and over again, which I don’t understand why they are there. They just are. Then it’s the endless words of the story. Each starting a different way to catch a reader’s attention. Continuing with the chapters going through the details of the story. But these many different details that are the same with each book makes me want to read the book instead of the silly ereading where you don’t get the whole book and the feel of the book.

 I want the book. The book is what’s appealing to me other than the story that submerses into my imagination. The feel of the book in my hands instead of just staring at a screen makes me want to read the actual book. The look of the book from before reading to after seeing the book being used is another thing that I like. You can tell that the pages have been turned and it’s shown in the spine and those smudges from the oil on your fingers. You are making this book unique, as it started as one of the numerous copies. You drop food on it as you can’t put it down to eat. Yes the kindle may be easier to carry around but it isn’t the same going out and it in your hands. It’s a good conversation starter, what book are you reading, oh that cover looks so cool, what’s it about. It can endlessly bring up questions unlike the kindle, oh you have books on that, cool.

The book makes the experience better, you can directly write in it. Make notes for yourself or for the next person to read. Remind yourself of the great parts of the book. You can fold over and ear to mark your page, you can have those silly, puny, creative bookmarks that just make you smile. The book is unique in your hands. They don’t have the same weight or size. They are their own entity.
