Peach Pit was a wonderfully insane collection of short stories. Each story added something different to the whole, and I enjoyed most of them. I will say, some of the characters weren’t exactly morally grey as the editor’s note at the beginning mentioned since several of the main characters committed murder, however, I loved what this book is doing for the unsavory female lead! It’s definitely not for the faint of heart (Maps in particular) so check the content warning before giving it a scoop. My favorites where The Devil’s Doorbell by Amanda Leduc, Amaranth by Lauren Groff, and Manifestation by Sarah Rose Etter!
