Wow, this is the most bizarre and weird book I have read so far. This is a book you will either love or hate. This book definitely made me feel uneasy at times. Such a creative book! You will keep thinking about this book for a long time. Very thought-provoking! Also makes for a great discussion with your book club or reading buddies. 

Spoiler

This book is about a character with schizofrenia / psychoses (I think, this is not specifically mentioned) which makes you doubt what is real and what is not while reading this book. I still don't know and that is the intention. I keep speculating about this! This is what a good book should provoke in my opinion! I even read about other people's thoughts about it because I was so curious about what others thought about what was real and what not. Wish I had someone to discuss this with.

sam and ava were boring characters all in all but i absolutely love how much of a bizarro acid trip this was. 

i'm def in the minority for enjoying this but i can't wait to see what other books mona awad has published bc i'm sure i can find a five star.

A wonderful fever dream.  I've just finished it and I'm left with a book buzz, but also a small ball of nausea in the bottom of my stomach that only time will settle.  This story was like The Craft meets Heathers.  It's perfect for your average Generation X reader who still thinks it's cool not to sell out and secretly wants to punish those mean girls in high school who had everything.  I enjoyed it and I didn't. It was brilliant.  If you are in the mood for dark absurdity, as one often is in the fall, check Bunny out.
