Book Review of Dexter by Design (Dexter, Bk 4)

Dexter by Design (Dexter, Bk 4)
kaiaaa avatar reviewed on + 8 more book reviews


As in Book 3, Dexter keeps making egregious mistakes and not putting clues together until the last pages of the book, when he stumbles into the bad guy's arena and - one fortunate accident later - miraculously his problems all go away. He has no plan for solving his problems other than getting to the killer. I almost feel he doesn't deserve to get off so easy.

Was going to buy the last book (PBS waiting list is too long), but now I'm thinking not... If I do, it'll be for the lure of Dexter's sunny thoughts, not for the plot development.
