The Doll House by Phoebe Morgan

The Doll House by Phoebe Morgan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Corinne has been struggling to have a baby for quite some time and attempt after attempt at IVF have not brought her any closer to her dream of becoming a mother. As she begins yet another try Corinne finds a piece of an old doll house that she and her sister had as children and believes that this may be a sign that it’s her turn to become a mother.

Ashley is Corinne’s sister and from the outside she has the perfect life that Corinne wishes to have someday. But Ashley’s life is far from perfect, her husband is always away at work, her teen is testing the limits and getting into more and more trouble and even her baby has begun to have night terrors. Ashley however wasn’t too concerned over the dollhouse when Corinne brings it up but as more pieces arrive Corinne begins to worry just where they are coming from.

The Doll House by Phoebe Morgan is a psychological thriller that is told form different points of view during the story. I personally found this one to be a very slow paced read as it reminded me a lot of another romantic suspense story that I read recently that featured the main character finding things in their home and that one had a lot more action and moved a lot quicker than this one.

However, even with the slow pace and build up of the story within these pages I couldn’t help but be curious as to where the author was taking the story so it still had the pages turning with the intrigue. I had a few guesses along the way and sort of hit one but with a few little twists here and there I think the story worked itself out rather well in the end. Would recommend checking this one out to the fans of psychological thrillers.

I received an advance copy from the publisher via NetGalley.
