About the Book

Perfect for fans of Lisa Frankenstein and Bones and All, this "brutally beautiful" (Cassandra Clare) coming-of-rage horror novel about girl villains and monstrosity follows two sisters...and their growing body count--now with a brand-new look! Kit and Fancy Cordelle are sisters of the best kind: best friends, confidantes, and accomplices. Daughters of the infamous Bonesaw Killer, Kit and Fancy are used to feeling like outsiders, and that's just the way they like it. But in their otherworldly East Texan town, where the weird and wild run rampant, they are hardly the oddest or most dangerous creatures around. Despite their mother's efforts to curtail their worst impulses, Kit and Fancy eventually give into their deepest, most secret desire--the desire to kill. What starts as a fascination with slicing open and stitching up quickly spirals into a gratifying murder spree. Of course, the sisters aren't killing just anyone--only the people who truly deserve it. But the girls have learned from the mistakes of their father and know that any shred of evidence could get them caught. So when Fancy stumbles upon a gateway into another world, she opens a door to the perfect body disposal...and to endless possibilities.

Review :
"Reeves' women are stunning--brazening through life on a mixture of sexuality, vulnerability, instability, and brilliance that serves them well as they encounter monsters literal and figurative, internal and external."----BCCB "Whimsically dark and impossible to put down, SLICE OF CHERRY is a beautifully written and bloody coming-of-age tale starring two weird sisters on a murder spree out of love. Definitely a must-read."--Jamison Shea, author of I Feed Her to the Beast and the Beast is Me "Violently cathartic and narratively intimate, Slice of Cherry is unlike anything I've ever read. I found myself laughing one page and horrified the next--Kit and Fancy have slashed and slung their way into my mind and won't be leaving anytime soon. A bloody spectacle!"--Courtney Gould, award-winning author of The Dead and the Dark "Brutally beautiful -- not like anything else you'll read this year, or any other."--Cassandra Clare, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Mortal Instruments series "Wicked, violent and utterly enthralling, Slice of Cherry is a portrait of adolescence that turns the stomach and races the heart. A rerelease so fresh and delicious, everyone deserves another chance to take a bite."--Kayla Ancrum, award-winning and critically acclaimed author of The Wicker King and Icarus "A memory and utterly twisted coming-of-age story...soaked in the paranormal--and blood." ----Publishers Weekly "Reeves returns to her fictional East Texas town of Portero for a tale more gruesome, disturbing and shamelessly enjoyable than Bleeding Violet...somehow, in this orgy of gore, a touching coming-of-age tale emerges, as the two emotionally stunted young women connect with community. The warm, fuzzy moral--that it's fine to be a serial killer as long as you're doing it to help others--will delight and entertain readers mature enough to appreciate that fictional morals needn't always coincide with real-life didacticism. This gleeful page-turner is a winner."----Kirkus Reviews "Reeves, experimenting with a much darker side of magical realism, definitely has plenty of ideas. The vividly created fantasy world in which buried victims grow into beautiful trees is fully engaging...[f]ans of Showtime's Dexter series will be thoroughly engrossed."----School Library Journal "Slice of Cherry is earnestly macabre, with razor-sharp characterizations in a sugar-sweet coat of moral ambiguity. [T]here is nothing mundane about this delectable novel...Reeves' prose is dreamlike, strange, and bewitching as she effortlessly tells a story about some rather gory and unsavory subjects in a deceptively blasé manner. Be warned that Slice of Cherry is not for the faint of heart...if you, like me, delight in the absurd and the grotesque; if you've ever felt like you just don't quite adhere to the tastes of the norm; if you like complicated and darkness...well, you might wanna cut yourself off a Slice of Cherry."----The Book Smugglers "Twisted and creepy, this book is not for the faint of heart. Reeves sets no boundaries for herself, as readers witness the strange mind of a serial killer, possibly changing all perceptions of love and murder. Horrifyingly beautiful." ----Romantic Times
