Jim's Review
🐛
Flynn's debut is lean, mean, and absolutely vicious. Jim thought Gone Girl was dark? Sharp Objects makes it look like a Hallmark movie. The toxic family dynamics are so well-drawn that Jim needed a shower afterward. It's a slim book with a massive punch, and the final twist made Jim's segments curl. Four worms — small-town horror at its finest.
