A review by hettyreads
The Doll Factory by Elizabeth Macneal

5.0

I've had this book on my shelf since the beginning of Corona Lockdown and finally decided to pick it up for the Reading Rush.... and oh boy am I glad that I did. How did I have this amazing story on my shelf for so long and didn't decide to read it until now?? It ticks all my boxes: London, historical, dark themes, lovable (and hateable) characters, a wombat.

If I had to find a fault, I would say it took some time for the story to pick up, but the writing was so captivating I just kept reading.
