Gone Girl is a good read. A light one but a good one. I quite enjoy Gillian Flynn. She also wrote Sharp Objects, have you seen it? And Dark Places which I’m not sure if they turned into a movie or not.
The interesting example is 2001: A Space Odyssey - based on Arthur C. Clarke’s “The Sentinel” short story but then novelised subsequently, also by Clarke. I can recommend the well-written novelisation because it actually tells you what’s going on the film, which - because I’m just a visual passenger - I didn’t quite parse the first, second or fifth time I saw it. That said, I’m terrified to watch the film they made of “The God of Small Things”.

always meant to watch Sharp Objects, looks great. It's languishing on the 'long list'... lol.
