Doll Face by Shannon O'Connor

3.0

HI BARBIE! It's the mantra we've all been living for every since Barbie and her vivid pink subversively feminst wonderland entered the ecosystem. AND I AM HERE FOR THE BARBenaissance. I've been eyeing this authors lusciously adorable covers for a while, and this Barbie-inspired sapphic novella seemed the perfect place to dive in.

Doll Face is a light and fun short story with ample spice. If you're looking for quick read that's pretty surface level light, this will be a nice diversion. I liked the writing style, but I found myself hankering for more story and substance to Barbie and Kenzie's history. The characters are pretty one note, which meant the chemistry mostly comes from steam alone. For a steamy novella that hits the spot for the most part, and we have plenty of Barbie-themed references sprinkled around the way too.
