The Bridesmaid

A Novel of Suspense

De: Ruth Rendell

Narrado por: Barbara Rosenblat

Senta Pelham is a mirror image of Flora, the lovely marble bust Philip fanaticized about for so long. But life, like art, is not always what its mere surface suggests. And Senta’s strange world of make-believe, where truth and falsehood are eerily interchangeable, soon draws Philip into a shadowy cloister of vague and uncertain terror.

Well-written and creepy tale

I very much enjoyed this audiobook. This is the first Ruth Rendell book I’ve ever read or listened to and I’m so glad I have a few others of hers in my audiobook queue. I got this on the recommendation of of some person who had written a review of another audiobook (can’t remember which one) who had said that the creepiest book he had ever read was The Bridesmaid by Ruth Rendell. I also listened to a brief dramatization of this book but I found the unabridged version to be more filled-out and enjoyable. It’s really a psychological thriller and I found it very enjoyable. I became completely engrossed and invested in the characters. The narration is TOP NOTCH.

Not As Good

One of Rendell poorer entries. Still in the end memorable. Th he Bridesmaid drags on and on in a lot of chapters.At times I wanted to give up on it. Ruth Rendell must have a warped ,dark mind to come up with the characters and plots she does. That says a lot about me since she is one of my all-time favorites. This book is one I'd have soon as skipped but still will find myself thinking about . Narration is good.

Dissapointed

I love Ruth RendeL. ...But not this book. It drug along and was boring. I recommend you try another book by this author but this one...no.
