REVIEW: The Dollhouse by Charis Cotter

/
The novel The Doolhouse by Charis Cotter on a table with a doughnut on a red plate and a coffee mug that says "Witches Brew"

Alice has a whole spectacular summer planned with her friends now that they are finally old enough to stay home alone. That is all put on hold when her parents decide to separate and her mom takes a job upstate. To make matters worse Alice suffers a concussion when her train stops suddenly on the way there and she bumps her head. Add in a cranky old lady and a dollhouse in the attic and Alice is not having the summer she planned!

Living dolls is one of my very favorite creepy things to read about this time of year, and this middle grade novel from Library Thing Early Reviewers did not disappoint! I am passing this one on to my 11 year old next. A good, fun book for Halloween reading.
