"Watch these suburban teens mask murder with windows rolled down and hair caught in the wind; Grant fiddling with the radio and “All Shook Up” pulsing beneath their feet. What might’ve been ditching afternoon classes is, when the curtains are torn away, teeth in a wheel that’s been spinning since the night they’d held my head underwater for ten minutes too long." (Chapter 20)
Okay, this book was (beautifully) written by my good friend Spenser, so I may be a little biased…
But, I am not at all exaggerating when I say that I LOVED reading this book. The writing is addictive, the atmosphere is chilling, and the characters are unlikeable to the point where you can’t get enough of them.
One thing I really liked about Cherry Pits was that it’s so different from the other book I usually read. It starts off with a teenage girl being murdered by her boyfriend and best friends, and then follows her ghost, watching them attempt to cover their tracks. That alone intrigued me, and easily kept me hooked throughout the story.
The way the book was written - not chronologically - brought out the mysterious aspect of the book. We don’t know all the details until the very end, and it’s so fun watching it unfold, as Piper slowly reveals the story behind her death.
It’s hard to pick a favorite character, because they’re all so awful in the big picture - even Piper herself. I think the fact that Piper, Sienna, Grant, Daphne, Lyric, and Miles are all equally unlikeable, yet in different ways, just shows how well they were written.
Cherry Pits is a ghost story; it’s a story about faults and revenge and crooked love. It’s addicting and poetic, and it’s worth your time. Please go support an amazing, independent author by purchasing and reading her book!
