This information is collected from Amazon.com and from these statistics alone, it may be safe to say that Girl on the Train is certainly the more popular read- even though both books are considered in different genres. Gone Girl does have the up in the film section because GOTT doesn't even have a movie out. I have't read Gone Girl but I have read a different piece of work from Gillian Flynn, Sharp Objects, I feel that she has the talents to write a good mystery/thriller novel. You can refer to my previous blog post 'Gone Girl vs. The Girl on the Train' to read about the similarities and differences within the two books.
