A chilling ghost story from the author of The Woman in Black, set in a crumbling English house...
The remoter parts of the English Fens are forlorn, lost, and damp even in the height of summer. At Iyot Lock, a large decaying house, two young cousins, Leonora and Edward, are parked for the summer with their aging spinster aunt and her cruel housekeeper. At first the unpleasantness and petty meanness appear simply spiteful, calculated to destroy Edward's equanimity. But when the spoiled Leonora is not given the birthday present of a specific dolly that she wants, affairs inexorably take a much darker turn with terrifying, life-destroying consequences for everyone.

is similiar to his, and she weaves the plot flawlessly..so well done! A lonely house far from others,
a church graveyard, a piece-meal family amid conflicts and inheritances..and a simple toy
that isn't what it seems.
Brilliantly Chilling.. wait for the ending!

It was not scary at all and the voice of the little girl & then as a grown up was VERY ANNOYING!! 👎 The little girl was a snobby brat and the voice used for her made her even worse. 🤬 I wanted to push her down the stairs with her dolly. Lol😂
It tended to be very long winded😴 & the characters were a bit over developed at times, while others were not developed enough.🙄 I pushed myself to finish the book and found myself falling asleep & having to go back to listen to the parts I missed.😴😑
The narrator wasn't to bad really, but I wouldn't get another book with him as narrator myself.👎
If the book is free (like it was for me) then maybe give it a shot, but it's not worth a credit or money.🤏

1-you’ve got the dolls that become possessed by a ghost or an evil spirit, or pretty much from something that isn’t the doll.
2-you’ve got the dolls whose spirit are that of the doll. and in this category: sometimes they live and are active such as Toy Story or The Doll People.
to a lesser extent you have The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, where you have the thoughts and feelings of the doll but he can’t physically move.
3-you’ve got stories where the dolls are simply inanimate objects that are more or less used as metaphors, similes, analogies. they are meant to mirror the lives of characters, or to show you that these characters “are just like these inanimate dolls” or “something profound, poetry, yada yada yada”. that’s the jist and i jest but you can make some profound thoughts and statements through this category. this category could def crossover w 1 and 2 as well.
Dolly is closest to category 2. the doll in this story is very much a doll. and so the horror plays by the doll’s rules.
before i go on: in general, the book is at best a 3. it’s not amazing. it’s actually really really dry. it takes a while to care about the characters and once you do you don’t particularly care that much.
but in terms of doll horror; the relationship between the doll, the scares, and the character; then it was extremely welll done and probably one of my favorite concepts i’ve read so far.
the narrator was very good but his voice for one of the female characters was a little annoying. that’s why i gave him a 4.
and there you go. a nice, quick little halloween treat. good for a free book!
doll horror done right
