hayleygoudreau 's review for:
Broken Dolls
by Mique Watson
2.5 stars
I chose to read this book, because I wanted to read the second installment (Broken Dolls: Deliverance) by the same author. The reviews I'd seen, talked about how the 2nd book hints at the first one throughout - so I wanted to fully understand the story.
I SHOULD HAVE JUST TRIED TO READ THE SECOND WITHOUT THE FIRST
This book is fucking brutal. It's a lot of 'body-horror' mixed with a TON of child sexual assault. Blood for the sake of blood, isn't really my thing... and I especially cannot stand abuse toward a child (especially how continuous it was in this book).
While I understand that the book ended the way it did, for a reason... there were 2 children in this story (Tully and Cody), and Cody's character was not only unnecessary, but was added only for torture (I believe).
Anyway... I'm going to need to read a couple of lighter, fluffier stories in-between this book and the next. I truly hope that Broken Dolls: Deliverance is better than this one.
