This was a dark read. The doll babies are the least dark of the whole thing. The two girls have a dark past. They go their separate ways and then reunite. There’s a dark reason that brought them back together again. Much of this book was predictable but there were some big surprises towards the end. If you like mysterious dark psychological thrillers and don’t get mad at a protagonist that keeps missing all the signs, this book will be enjoyable for you!! 🫣
