Book: The Dollmaker by Ashlynn Author
Reviewed by Kayleigh
Rating: 5/5
This was a strong start to a series. I’ve never read anything by Ashlynn before, but it won’t be the last! I love the way she writes. Her chilling descriptions of heinous acts are intricately detailed, showcasing her ability to explore the darkest corners of the human psyche. She sets the tone beautifully, drawing you into an unsettling yet enthralling world. Each sentence unfolds with precision, making it impossible to put the book down, and I’m eager to know what happens next.
Throughout the story, you really feel for Savannah. She goes through intense hell, facing trials that challenge her spirit and test her limits. Despite the darkness surrounding her, she finds the strength to carry on, drawing on an inner resilience that surprises her. Albeit with extreme trauma that influences her thoughts and emotions, just when you think she’s on the path to healing, her whole world is cruelly ripped from underneath her feet, plunging her back into chaos and forcing her to confront new fears.
This story really is not for those that have suffered trauma that is connected to SA, as it delves into themes that could be deeply triggering for them. It is, however, the perfect start to one gruesome revenge story!
