Other than a few slower spots this story rocketed along. The disquiet built as stranger events and tantalizing clues were dangled in front of you. I love Frozen Charlotte dolls and this definitely lives up to their creepy little reputation . The end of the book left it open for a sequel (which was written-Charlotte Says) so there is more time to play dolls.

I feel like I am not the right audience for this book.
The start came in strong, and I actually felt creeped out. But when the same thing happened over and over again (disembodied voices, moving dolls, weird cousins), it just became tired and repetitive. At about 30% I just lost interest, and only the want to unfold the mystery kept me leafing through the pages. And then everything was revealed and it's just not worth it. Other readers have praised the fact that the author didn't bother with subtlety, but I think it only made the "twists" ineffective. The aftermath of the revelation was actually good, quick-paced and heart-pounding, but it was quickly followed by the conclusion to the weird sexual tension that had been going on between the protagonist and one of her cousins, which, by the way, was not comfortable to read.
This is the kind of horror that I'm actively trying to avoid, yet I fell into its trap. I blame the Frozen Chars.

Bardzo fajna książka, akcja szybko się rozwija i nie ma żadnego nudnego momentu. Momentami straszna, ale wszystko bardzo fajnie się zgrywało. Bardzo podobał mi się motyw nawiedzonych, przeklętych lalek. Książka napisana bardzo fajnym i prostym językiem.

It’s a really good book, it’s fast paced and there is no boring moments. There are some scary moments but everything works perfect regarding the plot. I really liked haunted and cursed dolls. The book is written very good.
