From the authors of Vile Confection and Ingest Me, comes Ravenously Yours & Banana Peel. Tales of sapphic cannibalism & Layered Love. An Extreme Horror & Bizarro Horror, 2-for-1.
Ravenously Yours Mary and Cassie both harbor a forbidden hunger. When they meet in an online forum, their connection is immediate. As their love grows, so does their monstrous appetite.
Not wanting to consume what they cherish most, Mary and Cassie plunge into a blood-soaked journey that has everyone fighting for their lives.
Banana Peel Tasha loves her fiancé, the color yellow, and bananas. Her fiancé might say she’s obsessed with yellow and the phallus-shaped fruit. Perhaps she agrees…
Tasha dreams of an ultimate fantasy, and it’s her fiancé who offers it to her…
People with tattoos taste disgusting. Just saying… No one can come for me and eat me. And after this… I’m never eating bananas again (I ate two bananas today).
This two-story collection is extreme horror with flavor, but it’s also about intimacy, love, and the way obsession consumes.
In Ravenously Yours, Mary and Cassie meet over a shared interest in food. Their romance is tender, bloody, and yummy? In Banana Peel, Tasha’s obsession with yellow (and bananas) spirals into a bizarre, hilarious, and horrific fantasy that only her fiancé can fulfill.
I absolutely ate this book up! (Pun fully intended 😆) Thank you for the ARC! 🥹🥰
>SOME SPOILERS AHEAD<
Ravenously Yours
🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸 / 5!
The story follows two young women, Cassie and Mary, who meet on an online platform devoted to cannibalism. As is often the case with femme relationships, their romance blossoms fast and wild intensity. As a queer person myself, I really felt this - it was beautiful. If you take the human eating out of the equation, it’s genuinely a powerful, passionate love story.
They’re both ‘virgins’ to eating human flesh, and experience their first time together. The intimacy of that moment is so powerful - you can feel the passion between them in a way that transcends even sex.
But hunger is never satiated for long. They soon crave more flesh and devise ways to secure it - until their intended prey turn out to be cannibals themselves. What follows is brutal, shocking, and unforgettable. The women endure a horrific fate, but their connection remains unbreakable, no matter the consequences.
One of my biggest squeamishes is cannibalism, and this story pushed all my buttons in a horrifically enjoyable way. I genuinely felt the girls’ love story on such a deep level. The ending? I did not see it coming. Gory, visceral, and perfectly executed!
Banana Peel
🍌 🍌🍌🍌🍌 / 5!
This story was fucking bizarre, and I absolutely loved it.
We meet Tasha, who has a paraphilia for bananas. Her poor fiancé pays a hefty price for this obsession - already sick to death of her banana décor, banana scented lotions and potions, and banana print clothing (though never her banana coloured lingerie).
Among the horror, I was laughing my ass off. It’s bizarre and visceral in the same way as Ravenously Yours, but with a wicked sense of humour that makes it unforgettable.
Yet another fabulous collaboration between my all-time fave author Lesley and Risshan - whose book Vile Confection I also adored!
I think I’ve officially hit the point in my reading career where I can no longer look my Kindle in the eye.
These two stories broke my brain, my gag reflex, and possibly my moral compass, and it gave me anxiety, but I loved every disturbing second of it.
Ravenously Yours by Lesley Camphouse kicks off this collaboration with two girls Mary and Cassie who find each other online, through a shared interest in cannibalism. Not pizza. Not sushi. Let’s just say their cravings belong on a psych ward menu.
Ravenously yours had me clutching my stomach — partly from anxiety, and partly from hunger, all that talk of red meat cooking and simmering in all its juices literally made my mouth water (im kidding...mostly).
The way Lesley described the act — slicing, dicing, seasoning, and serving up human flesh like it’s a Sunday roast — gave me chills in the most deliciously, yet disturbing way.
I’m starting to think it isn’t Lesley's first rodeo in the kitchen of horrors. Maybe she’s harbouring some secret culinary urges… you know, the kind that involve carving up people instead of pork chops 😏🔪
Then comes Banana Peel, and oh boy…what another whack job 🍌
You see,Tasha loves the color yellow, her fiancé, and bananas. Like, really loves bananas! Her fiancé thinks it’s an obsession, but I think it’s a cry for help. I was equal parts laughing, gagging, and trying to delete my search history. (Don't ask)
These two stories were pure and utter chaos - unhinged, sticky, and somehow hilarious in their own grotesque way, shocking you into showing how far authors can push before you start feeling uncomfortable...well, Mission accomplished ladies!
Looking forward to more sick collaborations in the future!!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for audacity, originality, and complete moral corruption.
💀 Trigger warnings? Yes. All of them. Even the ones you didn’t know existed.
Wow! I was fortunate enough to receive the ARC and read this early, thank you Lesley Camphouse for this opportunity. Now let's get into the review.
The first story is about 2 girls who seemingly are very intimate together in their own messed up way. They both love the same thing and go on a hunt to find what they love! will they be able to survive every time they go out to hunt? that's for you to find out with a very suspenseful ending.
The second story is beyond insane. Have you ever been so obsessed with something you want to make it with a human? This one pulls you in so quickly and is just beyond a good story.
I have read a couple of Lesley Camphouse books and this one is the very first one that physically made me cringe and rethink why I read books like this. I will never stop reading books like this! The more I cringe the more I love it!
Okay, so I’m never eating another banana again in my life, let’s just get that out of the way…
Also, a huge thank you to Lesley and Risshan for letting me edit this one for them!
Ravenously Yours is a beautiful sapphic romance, if you consider wanting to cut up and eat pieces of the person you love to be romantic. After eating bits of each other, our two main characters decide they can’t keep doing it, so they set out to find other people to eat. This one is equal parts dark and gross, although I wouldn’t expect anything less from these two!
Banana Peel is a fun, gross-out bonus story. Tasha is obsessed with bananas and decides that she’d love her boyfriend much more if he resembled one…
These two short stories are about kinks, each messed up in their own way, with characters that are willing to go the extra mile to satisfy their obsessions.
On one hand we have Ravenously Yours, a sapphic tale that not only celebrates the love between Mary and Cassie, but also shows their love for meat… and I’m not talking about animals. Together they go on an adventure to discover themselves and what’s the finest delicacies out there. On the other we have banana peel… and Tasha’s life is dedicated to the colour yellow and bananas. If she could everything would be that colour and bananas would be used for everything…. and I mean EVERYTHING! Although her boyfriend is not so keen on her obsession, she takes it upon herself to change his opinion.
I’m not going to lie, I’ve been waiting patiently for this collab and it did not disappoint whatsoever. Both stories pull you in, chew you up and spit you out! They are raw and brutal. There’s absolutely no holding back! … and I lived for it!
Ravenously Yours and Banana Peel will be out on the 24th October and I have to thank the ladies for letting me read the arc! This was a fun and gory ride and I cannot wait to get my hands on a physical copy!
You just know I’ve been patiently waiting for this since it was released that Lesley & Risshan were doing a collab!! I just knew it would be amazing! As always, it did not disappoint 👏🏼
Cassie has a secret desire…something she cannot get out of her mind, she craves it, dreams about it, watches & reads every single thing about it. She needs to act on it soon, it’s taking over her life. Problem is craving human flesh isn’t really the norm is it? Luckily you can find anything on the internet & finding someone who’s just like her & willing to swap “parts” of themselves is just the start of this addiction.
But one taste is never enough, the hunt begins! How far will they go and will their actions suffer the consequences…
Oh I LOVED this so much 👏🏼 cannibalism is one of my tropes, I don’t know why but it just fascinates me, so this was obviously made for me! And the ending!! Yep…didn’t see it coming…PERFECTION 👌🏻👏🏼
Banana peel 🍌
Tasha is OBSESSED with bananas, everything about them makes her happy. The colour yellow is prominent through out her house, the walls, curtains, cushions & every last surface, she LOVES it. Her partner on the other hand really doesn’t, but he puts up with it because he loves her.
Tash loves him too but she is no longer happy with the way he looks, she’s decided he needs to be more…yellow, banana’ish!! Research shows her the best way how & her plan gets put into motion 🫣
Ah this was so much fun!! I love bizzaro 😂 it’s just the most random, silly stories that have me scoffing all the way through! Tasha was a little bit cray craaaay. Brilliantly done 👏🏼
Amazing collab you two!! I obviously devoured this in one sitting 😌 It’s ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from me 👏🏼 Releasing on 24th October, makesure to get your pre-orders in & check the triggers of course! 🤎

Her fiancé tolerates her obsession,until Tasha decides he doesn’t fit into her perfect world. His skin, lacks that ripened tint. Determined to change this, she devises a plan to make her fiancé look like a banana. Sometimes obsession can be rotten.
excuse me!!! this was such a fun read! Ravenously Yours - When the curiosity of cannibalism turns into a full feast, Cassie and her new love will do whatever it takes to get their next meal. Only things don't always work as well as they're planned. Banana Peel - Bananas aren't just Tasha's favorite fruit, they are an obsession. To the point of wanting everything in her life to look, smell, and taste like a banana, including her fiancee.
Ahhh I loved this book! It was the perfect 2 horror stories I needed in my life just in time for spooky season 🎃, each one dark, gory and perfect in its own way! The twists, the cannibalism, the bananas—there was literally no dull moment and I know both stories will stick with me long after.
Don’t forget to read the tw list before diving in 🙏🏼
Thank you Risshan for the opportunity to ARC this book, I thoroughly enjoyed it 😍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hold your lunch or dinner… This book is not for the weak-stomached. If yours is sensitive, consider this your warning, but where's the fun in holding back? 😏
📖 Ravenously Yours
Cassie has always been a little too obsessed with cannibalism, while Mary is fascinated by the rich, intoxicating pull of blood. Put the two of them together, and suddenly, everything gets darker and wilder. They don't just explore their darkness. They feed it, let it grow, and lose themselves in the madness only they can create🩸 But what if the hunter finds themselves hunted? The tables turn. The thrill they once controlled now twists into something deadly 💀
📖 Banana Peel
Tasha lives for all things bananas and yellow 🍌💛 Her fiancé is hanging on for dear life, trying not to get swept away by the banana chaos. But what if Tasha's obsession takes a darker turn? She can't stop imagining 'peeling' Leandro, picturing him bathed in yellow, and somehow, the thought thrills her in ways that should be illegal ☠️🍌
And... why does craving a banana split and vanilla ice cream with brain… uhh, I mean, cookie sprinkles… feel so wrong all of a sudden? 🤪
A 5☆ read. I might be enjoying this a little too much, and I'm not even sorry 😈
⚠️ Bloody, deadly cravings, and yes, banana gone very, very wrong in this book. Your stomach has been warned (again!) ☠️ Trigger warnings apply. Your mental health matters 🌼
Two twisted tales that are both wonderfully horrific, brutal and out straight disgusting, yet I was absolutely HOOKED! Ravenously Yours & Banana Peel are two seperate tales, but ones that will leave your skin crawling and your stomach doing backflips.
Ravenously Yours is a twisted love story of two lesbian cannibals who meet through their shared love of human flesh. However, the story just gets darker and more disturbing. I promise you, just went you think it's all over, the story will take a turn you will never see coming!
Banana Peel is a shorter tale following a woman's obsession with bananas, ending with a plot twist that will literally leave you picking your jaw up off the floor.
This collection was sick and twisted with the most vile scenes, but I wouldn't have had it any other way, I was obsessed. 10/10 for any fellow extreme horror and splatterpunk girlies!
Thank you so much to the authors for an arc of this book, all opinions are my and left voluntarily.
Ravenously Yours & Banana Peel is one of those wild, genre-bending anthologies you pick up thinking you’re prepared… and then five pages in you realize you absolutely were not. This collection blends sapphic cannibalism, queer romance, body horror, and dark comedy into something that’s equal parts unsettling and irresistible.
Risshan Adele and Lesley A. Camphouse have this twisted talent for making you nervous to turn the page, yet desperate to keep going. Every story drips with intimacy, hunger, and strangely tender moments that sneak up on you. The imagery is bold, visceral, and unapologetically weird in all the best ways.
It’s chaotic, it’s campy, it’s gory, it’s queer, and it knows EXACTLY what it wants to be. If you enjoy horror that pushes boundaries and romance that refuses to be “pretty,” this one deserves a spot on your TBR. Just… maybe don’t snack while you read it. 👀🔪🍌
Firstly thank you to Lesley & Rishan for my Advanced Copy of these 2 short stories.
Ravenously Yours, story 1 in this book was actually hideous. Cannibalism is a secret our 2 FMCs have to keep a secret from everyone they know. Until they find each other and begin to embrace their true nature. Embarking on their journey in to fulfilling their cannibalistic dreams - they find love with one another but all is not well that ends well.
Banana Peel, story 2 in this book has made it so that I am absolutely never ever going to look at a banana the same way ever again! Our FMC's obsession with bananas and all thing yellow takes a dark, gross and sadistic turn. Leaving her fiancé wishing he had paid closer attention to his surroundings.
To be young and fall in love. Explore each other, and each other’s interests. Wine and dine together, all butterflies and rosy cheeks-No. Well yes, but no.
Cassie and Mary-a match made in Hell. They meet online in the ”Just a Bite“ forum, where obsessions with blood and cannibalism collide. This was a fast-paced, thrilling and gruesome read. I was hooked in, from start to finish. I could not look away.
The development of the two main characters–their love, their madness–was captivating. They explore the forbidden fruits of their darkest fantasies.
I’d recommend Ravenously Yours to Extreme Horror readers with a strong stomach. Read the trigger warnings–and enjoy!
Banana Peel
We’ve all fantasized about the perfect lover. A certain look. A certain smell. A specific color. How about a banana? 🍌✨ To peel the perfectly ripe banana. Ah, yes, the sweet yellow fruit Tasha just can’t get enough of. Her beloved Leandro–or Banandro as she playfully calls him–really should have paid better attention to his surroundings is all I’ll say about that.
This story was hilarious, disgusting and honestly? I kind of loved it.
Ravenously Yours & Banana Peel by Lesley A. Camphouse and Risshan Adele 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 OMG! Extreme horror that left me speechless!! Ravenously Yours is a lot to take in! It’s dark, disturbing and I couldn’t stop reading it. It’s one of the grossest stories I’ve read. Cassie and Mary fall in love and also share a deep love for the taste of flesh. Their desires take them to some dark places! A true cannibal love story.
Banana Peel- even though it is super short, it packed a giant yellow gross, and humorous, fruit punch!!
Tasha and Leandro have a different type of relationship. Tasha is not just in love with everything associated with bananas, but is completely obsessed with them! She expects her boyfriend to be also. He does pretty well tolerating her weird obsession until one day Tasha decides she wants Leandro to make the ultimate banana sacrifice for her.
Thank you to the authors for an arc of these amazing and disgusting stories!
*This book is not for the faint!* It comes out October 24th!! Check it out if you have a strong stomach!! 🥩🥩🦴🦴🩸🩸🍌🍌
This book didn’t ask for permission, and neither will I. I read this ARC like I was starving, like I was hiding something, and knew it would wreck me and I said yes anyway.
Ravenously Yours & Banana Peel is not safe. It is not quiet. It is not polished or palatable. It is peeling yourself back, over and over, just to see what’s still beating underneath—and boy does it. It doesn’t whisper, it pounds.
These stories don’t give you permission to “like” the characters; it dares you to recognize yourself in them—in their shame, their hungers, their decisions, their desires… the soft parts they hide with claws.
I laughed. I questioned shit. I reread paragraphs out loud just to taste them. I highlighted kindle pages for later like a recipe. I felt feral. This book is not tidy. It is alive, its art with its jaw unhinged and eyes wide open. So yeah, it didn’t stand a chance, I devoured it. I ravened it. I peeled it down to the softest, strangest, sweetest banana 🍌 — It’s all yours on October 24, 2025.
Ravenoulsy Yours, a sapphic love story of Uhaul Lesbians as they embark on a twisted journey into the depths of their inner most darkest desires. Not everything goes their way, and some parts may leave you gagging in repulsive response to a very well written horror show! The huntress' aren't always one step ahead, and don't be looking for that fairy tale end.
Banana Peel, we all have our kinks, and well I don't shame! Follows Tasha's yellow banana obsessed life, and the ultimate downfall of her beloved Banandro. She's just got to fulfill that ultimate banana filled fantasy, and no, you can't even begin to imagine what a banana filled fantasy might begin to be.

I received this book as part of the 2025 October Indie-tron and I absolutely loved both of these stories. I could not get enough and will be reading more from both of these authors.
** spoilers ahead **
Ravenously Yours The story was fantastic and the connection between Cassie and Mary seemed so genuine. The only reason this story is not 5 stars is because the last few chapters seemed like an afterthought and a way to wrap up the story. The story seemed complete before the virus spread.
Banana Peel The story was short and well put together. Short, sweet, and to the point.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Two really fucking weird splatterpunk tales of love. Cannibal girlfriends; and turning your boyfriend into a banana. Never thought I'd be reading THAT. The first story gives us disgusting splatter with a twist I didn't see coming, and the risks of being a cannibal. The second story is a weird as hell tale of... Banana obsession...??????
Cassie is consumed by dreams of cannibalism whilst Mary has an obsession with blood. When these two come together the outcome very quickly gets wiiiild! What happens when the hunters become the hunted? This books brings sapphic fire and I loved their connection. This book made me hungry 🤣🤣
Banana Peel 🍌 Tasha is obsessed with bananas and the colour yellow. Her long suffering partner Leandro is so fed up of it. She pleads with him to ‘use’ the bananas for more than their intended use but he rebuffs her. She also wonders how she can make Leandro her personal ‘peeling banana’. This story is absolutely wild!!! And I loved it!!!
��Ravenously Yours & Banana Peel” - I will never go on Craigslist or look at bananas 🍌 the same way.
★★★★☆ (4.5)
I just devoured an incredibly disturbing story about love and cannibalism, the dangers of twisty desires and extreme love, and I knew what I was getting myself into. Ever since I let myself get sucked into the world of Splatterpunk and Extreme Horror I’ve been coming across some wild stories and this one is no different. If you have barely any trigger warnings and you’re ready for sick, twisted & weird, look no further!
Thank you Lesley & Risshan for the opportunity to ARC read this one!
This was the first time reading a book by these authors and I’m glad that I did. This book had me hooked from the very beginning and I couldn’t put it down.
Ravenously Yours - This book was so sick and twisted. The characters definitely got what they deserved in the end. I really loved how it ended.
Banana Peel - This book was definitely interesting and entertaining, it made me giggle at the craziness.
Ravenously Yours kicks things off with a cannibalism love story that’s as grotesque as it is strangely tender. Mary and Cassie meet in an online forum, bond over their forbidden hunger, and spiral into a relationship that’s equal parts romantic and ravenous. It’s messy, violent, and weirdly beautiful — like Raw meets Nekromantik with a splash of doomed intimacy - nice little twist that I kinda predicted but not in the way that it happened.
Then comes Banana Peel, which flips the tone but keeps the madness. Tasha’s obsession with bananas, her fiancé, and the colour yellow turns into a surreal descent that’s part fever dream, part body horror, and all chaos. It’s absurd, funny, and deeply uncomfortable — in the best way.
Camphouse is in top form, pushing boundaries with her usual flair for the grotesque and emotionally raw. And Risshan Adele? Brilliantly unhinged. This was my first taste of Risshan and this is anything to go by then I’m certainly hungry for more.
This book has cannibals, murderous families, a sapphic love story and a woman obsessed with bananas.
This book has 2 stories. The first one is the one with the sapphic love story. It was shocking twist after twist and I loved it. The scenes where as always so well written.
The second one is the one with the woman obsessed with bananas. And I just kept thinking sure why not. You do you girl.
Haven’t picked up a book by Camphouse that I haven’t liked yet!! Defintely enjoyed this one. Not a fan of lesbians but it was a good read. The bonding and kidnapping was great until it wasn’t for them. Recommend. Most def.
Both stories were weird in a good way. I preferred the first one but the sudden POV change felt jarring. I would’ve liked an epilogue for story two because it was so outrageous. What happened to the main character?
In Ravenously yours, we follow the story of Mary and Cassie, two girls who share the same… taste. They meet on an online forum and meet up, they share the most amazing, delicious meal of their lives, but sadly it’s a one time experience. This is why, together, they’re about to start a wild journey. A journey to find that amazing meal again, or at least the closet thing to that. The situation turns upside down and our girls find themselves in a very ugly position.
Then in Banana Peel, we meet Tasha and Leandro, her boyfriend. Tasha has a very weird, intense obsession with bananas to the point that everything and I mean EVERYTHING need to be banana themed, her house, her clothes, her shampoo. At some point, she starts to have a crazy idea and her boyfriend will help her to reach that goal.
Guys! This was a very fun read, as usual with Lesley’s stories, and this is my first time reading a Risshan Adele story but rest assured it won’t be the last. It’s a short read and I promise you, you will have a blast while reading it, your stomach will turn upside down as well, but that’s exactly why we’re here, isn’t it?
Thank you so, so much Lesley for the ARC!!! It’s always an absolute pleasure reading your books 🩶
