Books ReviewedAsk LuvemBooks about Rick Bundschuh
- Where should I start?
- Soul Surfer is the natural starting point — it's the only Rick Bundschuh book we've reviewed, and it's the work they're best known for. The memoir tells Bethany Hamilton's true story of losing her arm to a shark at 13 and returning to competitive surfing, and it carries a 4.7/5 reader rating from 1,971 Amazon ratings.
- What's their writing style?
- Based on the one book we've reviewed, Bundschuh works as a collaborative co-writer, helping shape someone else's firsthand account — in Soul Surfer, that means presenting Bethany Hamilton's story of faith, family, and recovery in memoir form. The publisher describes the result as a #1 New York Times bestseller, and one blogger rated it four stars. We can't speak to a broader personal style from a single co-authored title.
- Books we've reviewed
- We've reviewed 1 Rick Bundschuh book. Soul Surfer, co-authored with Bethany Hamilton and Sheryl Berk, is Hamilton's memoir of surviving a shark attack at 13 and returning to competitive surfing — it holds a 4.7/5 reader rating from 1,971 Amazon ratings.
- What genre do they write?
- The one Rick Bundschuh book we've reviewed, Soul Surfer, is a memoir — a true story co-written with its subject, Bethany Hamilton. Given Bundschuh's background as a pastor and youth worker, faith themes appear in that work, but with only one title reviewed we can't generalize about a broader genre range.
- What happens in Soul Surfer?
- Soul Surfer recounts Bethany Hamilton losing her arm to a shark at age 13 and then working her way back to competitive surfing. It's framed as a story of faith, family, and perseverance, and the publisher bills it as a #1 New York Times bestseller.
