Book review: The Doll Factory, Elizabeth MacNeal

This book had been on my to read list for so long that I can’t remember where the recommendation to read it came from. I finally got round to it and now I regret not starting it sooner!

Its set at a time when London is buzzing with The Great Exhibition and there is a new wave of painters on the block who are busy upsetting people – Millias being one of them.

The book is really quite creepy as it spirals into a decent that only just redeems itself in the end. I really enjoyed reading this. I was rooting for the characters and at some points in the book (you will know when you get there) I gasped out loud.

This is Elizabeth MacNeal’s debut novel and I can’t wait for her to write another.
