Book review: Slice of Cherry

I've never been to hot and humid Texas but Dia Reeves mad me feel as if i were right there with the characters experiencing everything with Kit and Fancy. The daughters of The Bonesaw Killer of Portero, and they know that its only a matter of time before they follow in his foot steps.

Their dad was caught and is now on death row, but the sisters refuse to fall into the same trap. Using clever control Fancy knows that she can protect herself and her impulsive sister from the same fate as their father.

She eventually finds the missing crank, thanks to her dead ancestor Cherry, to her fathers kinetoscope. which was long abandoned in the dark killing cellar. Using this they are able to open "doors" to Fancy's world, a place where they can kill without remorse or conviction.

I really loved this book because Dia Reeves puts you into the story; and you end up feeling the anxiety and loneliness along with the characters. With all the twists and turns this books takes you won't be able to put it down. Following killings, crushes, magic and the fantasy world where buried victims grow into beautiful, and strange, trees.
