Back in 2012, Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl was an instant New York Times Best Seller. In the thriller novel, a man's wife goes missing and the husband becomes the number one suspect. With an all star cast including Ben Affleck, Rosamund Pike, and Neil Patrick Harris, the film adaptation is now in theaters, and we've seen a renewed interest in the novel.
