Readers say *Gone Before Goodbye* offers intriguing twists and a gripping middle, especially for those drawn to global medical intrigue and high-stake...
A lot of excessive detail. A lot of medical jargon. A lot of plot points. The only thing I
liked was the subplot related to an AI chatbot. I would have read an entire book just about that. I didn’t care for everything else.
It was fitting that I read this book right after I recently finished Remain by Nicholas Sparks and M. Night Shyamalan. Both books shared many similarities. Both were thriller novels co written by actors/filmmakers. Both dealt with the theme of grief. Remain succeeded a little better because it was simple and focused. Gone Before Goodbye failed because it was overly complex and scattered.
I was genuinely surprised at how bad this was. Which is sad because it will still receive blind praise because of Reese Witherspoon. I cannot recommend this book. Sorry. Maybe the inevitable movie adaptation will be better.
