"Jon Swift + Witches of Eastwick + Kelly 'Get In Trouble' Link + Mean Girls + Creative Writing Degree Hell! No punches pulled, no hilarities dodged, no meme unmangled! O Bunny you are sooo genius!" -Margaret Atwood, via Twitter
"A wild, audacious and ultimately unforgettable novel." -Michael Schaub, Los Angeles Times
"Awad is a stone-cold genius." -Ann Bauer, The Washington Post
The Vegetarian meets Heathers in this darkly funny, seductively strange novel from the acclaimed author of 13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl
"We were just these innocent girls in the night trying to make something beautiful. We nearly died. We very nearly did, didn't we?"
Samantha Heather Mackey couldn't be more of an outsider in her small, highly selective MFA program at New England's Warren University. A scholarship student who prefers the company of her dark imagination to that of most people, she is utterly repelled by the rest of her fiction writing cohort--a clique of unbearably twee rich girls who call each other "Bunny," and seem to move and speak as one.
But everything changes when Samantha receives an invitation to the Bunnies' fabled "Smut Salon," and finds herself inexplicably drawn to their front door--ditching her only friend, Ava, in the process. As Samantha plunges deeper and deeper into the Bunnies' sinister yet saccharine world, beginning to take part in the ritualistic off-campus "Workshop" where they conjure their monstrous creations, the edges of reality begin to blur. Soon, her friendships with Ava and the Bunnies will be brought into deadly collision.
The spellbinding new novel from one of our most fearless chroniclers of the female experience, Bunny is a down-the-rabbit-hole tale of loneliness and belonging, friendship and desire, and the fantastic and terrible power of the imagination.
Named a Best Book of 2019 by TIME, Vogue, Electric Literature, and The New York Public Library

CRAZY good

I absolutely loved the writing style of Mona Awad, there are many (actually good) metaphors, rhetoricals and other stylistics, without feeling forced or exaggerated.
I also loved the part that Smackie was a writer herself, all her struggles felt authentic, she as a character felt authentic. I understood (almost) every of her decisions and thoughts. She was kind of an unreliable narrator without knowing it the whole time, I loved that too.
The bunnies were surprisingly individual too. Before I read it, I thought they’d be all the same, wearing pink ballet dresses and eating sweeties and gossiping but no, they all have independent personalities. And those personalities are pretty great written too, (I especially loved cupcake) the bunnies were so much more than just a sect.
But the best character without question was Ava. Omfggg I AM IN LOVE there is literally no better character in the whole world, she is genius! At first I thought she was kinda mean and using Smackie, but as their relationship was explained, I understood her motives. I know how it sounds, but she literally knew better than Smackie what’s best for her. And SERIOUSLY, Ava is a goddamn icon. She is sooooooo cool and great and hot and everything. Also I never thought smoking or tango could be that hot.
My only complaint are those 50 pages somewhere in the middle, when she was all alone. That was a bit dragging and hard to get through. And also you always kinda have the feeling as if this whole book and every page has a deeper meaning ur just to dumb to really get…

i love a tainted unreliable protagonist, a fascinating book with so many layers and full of magical realism. the end has you questioning the sanity of the main character. the secret history meets mean girls
