In this dark and enchanting stand-alone fantasy from debut author Lynn Buchanan—complete with black and white illustrations and a full-wrap illustrated cover—discover a world centered around destructive, all-consuming monsters; the magical dolls designed to fight this force; and the artisans tasked with creating demon-slaying dolls. A touch cozy fantasy and a touch horror, The Dollmakers is perfect for fans of Studio Ghibli films, the works of TJ Klune and Travis Baldree, and readers of Juniper & Thorn and The Goblin Emperor.
In the country called One, dollmakers are vital members of the community. An artisan’s doll is the height of society’s accomplishments, while a guard’s doll is the only thing standing between the people of One and the Shod: vicious, cobbled monstrosities that will tear apart any structure—living or dead, inanimate or otherwise—to add to their horde.
Apprentice Shean of Pearl is a brilliant dollmaker. With her clever dolls, she intends to outsmart and destroy the Shod, once and for all—a destiny she’s worked her whole life toward accomplishing. But when the time comes for her dolls to be licensed, she’s told her work is too beautiful and delicate to fight. A statement that wounds and infuriates her; the Shod killed everyone she loved. How could her fate be anything but fighting them?
In an attempt to help her see a new path for herself, Shean’s mentor sends her on a journey to the remote village called Web, urging her to glean some wisdom from Ikiisa, a reclusive and well-respected guard dollmaker. But Shean has another plan: if she can convince the village of Web of her talents, the Licensor Guild will have to reconsider and grant her a guard’s license. And what better way to convince them than challenging Ikiisa and instating herself as the official dollmaker of Web?
Once she’s done that, proving her dolls’ worth in the fight against the Shod will be simple. As simple, that is, as calling the Shod to Web...

QOTD: what is something that will keep you reading a book even if you’re not totally invested? For me if the world building and storytelling keep me interested, even if I’m not satisfied by character motivations or event outcomes, I’ll usually keep reading! #fantasybooks #bookreview #thedollmakers #bookstagram

Welcome to the 2026 TBR challenge. I have set the same goal for myself several years in a row and I have failed so miserably it’s time for me to make some actionable steps to completing it!!! There are too many unread books (and audiobooks) in my apartment (I know what a terrible problem to have) so this year we are reading them!!!! I’m still in the process of laying out exactly what this challenge will entail to ensure I meet this goal. I will be bringing you along for the journey and let’s hope the next few (all of them) days are a little more successful than today 😂😂 #2026tbrchallenge #mytobereadlist #bookstoreadin2026 #nyc #bookstagram

Will I read any of these books? [My August Hopefuls]
Hey my lil Raindrops! Welcome back, or welcome home. My name is Desiree, it’s so nice to have you here! I’m the creator behind RainyDaysLibrary; I’m an English Honours graduate, a booktok/bookstagram content creator, and a devoted book-lover (of course).
Happy reading! 🌧
--- Look, will I actually manage to read all of these in August? Most likely not... because it's August 6th and I've already veered off path - BUT IT'S OKAY!!! This list is really just to give me a bit more peace of mind in choosing my next read, but it's definitely not set in stone.
What are your August hopefuls? ---
Stay a while; this is your home after all ❤️
