Just finished 'The Doll Factory' by Elizabeth Macneal Such a beautiful and darkly gothic tale, I loved the slow and painful unfolding of obsession in this book. Such a fave that I left it with a note on the tube for someone else to enjoy! Bring on #circusofwonders 🤩

I literally devoured this in an afternoon, if you are in the #WritingCommunity and struggling to develop depth in your characterisation then you have to read this. Such a simple premise but such a rich insight into love, sex and human nature. #BookTwitter
