An absolute hidden gem. Every story in this collection packed a punch, but Fiddler and Fruiting Bodies rocked my world.
The gambling concept was wild and I can only imagine how that would play out in a full length novel.
Fruiting Bodies, the story, was far more romantic than it had any right to be. It’s a beautifully gothic twist on idyllic, sapphic cottagecore. Mushrooms that grow from a lover’s body that can both feed and poison. ♥️
