Hey guys! Hope you all had a great Christmas and New Years! I’m sorry I haven’t posted properly in a while, but it has been really busy along with the fact that we are all ill! I also just found out that Sunday was my Blogaversary … Apparently I have been blogging for three years now!! Where has the time gone?? Anyway, this weeks pick for me is a book (and now film) that I have heard so much about and I am really looking forward to both reading it and watching it!
The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins
Published: January 13th 2015 by Riverhead Books
EVERY DAY THE SAME
Rachel takes the same commuter train every morning and night. Every day she rattles down the track, flashes past a stretch of cozy suburban homes, and stops at the signal that allows her to daily watch the same couple breakfasting on their deck. She’s even started to feel like she knows them. Jess and Jason, she calls them. Their life—as she sees it—is perfect. Not unlike the life she recently lost.
UNTIL TODAY
And then she sees something shocking. It’s only a minute until the train moves on, but it’s enough. Now everything’s changed. Unable to keep it to herself, Rachel goes to the police. But is she really as unreliable as they say? Soon she is deeply entangled not only in the investigation but in the lives of everyone involved. Has she done more harm than good?
It does have some mixed reviews, but I am really looking forward to forming my own opinions! Have you read the book or watched the film? Did you enjoy it?
What books are on your TBR’s?
I haven’t read it but my friend has read the translated version of it. She said it’s okay. I hope you’ll enjoy reading it!
I’ve heard some good things and some bad things, so I’m looking forward to forming my own opinion 🙂
I’ve heard so much about this book from pretty much everyone, and everyone who’s read it has recommended it to me as well but it’s not the kind of book I’d normally pick up so I guess I’m still a little on the fence about it.
Still I hope you enjoy it Lauren! 😀
I am looking forward to reading t because it is one of those books hat has really mixed reviews!
Well I haven’t seen many reviews but everyone I’ve spoken to has seemed to love it so either way I’ll be interested to see what you think Lauren. 🙂
I tried reading this book, and I just could not get into it…I hope you have better luck than me! The movie was great though!
Hopefully! I want to see the film as well 🙂 now that I have the book, though, maybe I should read it first
