Just started on Wolf in White Van by John Darnielle. Heard some great things about it and I'm a pretty big fan of The Mountain Goats.

A question to those who are reading / have read Gone Girl, did you pick up the book because you heard about it following its success in 2012 or were you reading it in anticipation of the Fiincher movie?

Interesting ancedote about the book. I had no intention of reading it at all. Was just going to watch the movie although i did hear that the MY version would be censored. Did not know why because i had no clue about the storyline. I am a big fan of Fincher's though. So then my mom asks to go get me the book the next time i am in a bookstore and i dutifuly do. Before passing it on to her i read the back jacket and it sounded interesting. Then i thought i'd just read a few pages to see what it was about. Now i am 200+ pages in and i cannot let it go. The dilemma i face is should i read the book and find out what happens at the end, and of course spoil the enjoyment of the movie or stop now and watch the movie and then continue reading on where i left off.

The boy in Borders who found a copy of the book for me did mention that he was reading the book after watching the movie as he wasn't sure what was going on, so he wanted to read the book.

So fellow bookies, any comments to my above dillema?

i just started reading this book too, due to the hype that has been going around (am at the mall part in the book)
however, i don't feel the pull or the i-can't-seem-to-put-this-book-down feeling...
the book is great as i enjoy the current-past storytelling style but it seems to be dragging on with little progress at the end of each chapter (drag-drag-drag-something major revealed-NEED TO CONTINUE READING)
i would definitely finish reading the book before watching the movie as books are always 10000x better than the movie.
