Well, this one was certainly something, a bizarre and brutal little revenge story about a doll that gains sentience and decides to punish her ‘papa.’ I thought the premise was interesting, and some parts were enjoyable. Papa gets his comeuppance in a satisfying “good for her” way. Despite this, I felt that certain aspects sashay a little too close to lolidom with a sprinkling of humiliation kink. I know that wasn’t the intent, but the choice to have papa seemingly enjoy himself to any degree and keeping the victim stuck against her will was not it for me.
Overall I thought this story was just okay, though I do have to give it points for originality, the rad cover, and for a very satisfying revenge arc against a monster. It will tickle extreme horror fans who enjoy female rage stories.
