I once read a book called The Collector.Its about a man who kidnaps a girl, andshe eventually dies. Its quite a horrible
story, but I liked it. Ferdinand Clegg is veryinhibited with women, he doesnt knowhow to talk to them, so he kidnaps a girlhes seen in the town. He keeps her in acottage and takes her photograph. In theend she dies but he didnt kill her. It waswritten by John Fowles. I liked it verymuch.
Is this a good review????

The Collector is a novel written byJohn Fowles. It was first published in1963, and it is a sort of horror story.
It is one of the most sinister books Ihave ever read. It holds yourattention from the start andbecomes more shocking as it
progresses.
What about this one ????
