A review by rachelellyn
The Bride Collector by Ted Dekker
2.0
Oh my God, soooooo much head-talk. This book was like bumping into your friend's acquaintance at a shop and having to listen to her story about her great aunt's third cousin's purchase of a car, complete with the word by word Consumer Guide write up of said car.... and how the great aunt's third cousin felt about each feature of the new car both pro and con.
And all the while your head is bouncing between a debate of your viable escape routes of climbing out the bathroom window or jumping through the front pane glass shop window, mapping out each escape route, scoping the scene for a milk crate to step on the hoist your arse up to the level of bathroom window or which chair you should use to break the shop window so you don't cut yourself breaking the glass... could you break the glass... is it bulletproof... probably not, it's just a simple shop... does the bathroom have a window... and calculating how fat the social media videos will make you look if you do choose the front window plan.
Make it stop.
My advice is to smile and walk past this book.
And although the premise of this story was good, the amount of words it took to tell the story was not.
