I found this book dreadful. Throughout people sweated, choked, threw up, got drunk, threw up some more, walked around smelling like sex, had bad breath - just wallowing in unpleasantness. Assume this was done to set the tone, and it certainly did. There was a bit of mystery and a faked surprise ending. The plotting was OK, writing coherent; it was simply one of the most unpleasant pieces of family complaint I've ever read. There was exactly ONE 'nice person' in the book and he was a minor character. While actions in the book were completely unrealistic this doesn't usually bother me. I can stand crass. I can endure hard core. This was unnecessarily gross and not up to the standard I thought Glynn set with 'Gone Girl.'
