Chatelaine Book Club

Everybody's come up with a list of their fave books of 2012, but I thought I'd try something a little different: My picks of my top unread books of 2012.

Our book club pick of the month is a riveting memoir about a young woman's terrifying experience with an undiagnosed illness. Is it possible Susannah has gone mad over the course of a single month?

To thank our loyal readers for their support, the Chatelaine Book Club is doing the ultimate five-day giveaway starting this weekend.

Gone Girl has swept readers everywhere off their feet with its narrative blend of thriller and astute psychological study. Gillian Flynn spoke with Chatelaine about the inspiration behind the book, the role artifice plays in relationships, the dark side of marriage, and what truly scares her.

Alex, Lora and I discuss how masterfully Gillian Flynn manipulates readers with this classic he-said/she-said thriller. Along the way, we touch on identity, misrepresentation, perception and assumptions. Hold on for the ride!
