  • good book. not very weird but weird.
  • You have to tolerate it. Just go through half of it and you’ll be hooked.
    The head explosion of men is what hooked me.
    When I thought, “Oh I know what’s next,” I was wrong because 200/300 pages in, I was confused what was happening. I liked that. It left me curious. 
  • In the end, I realized that what my friend Nicole (yes, special mention ka haha) said once when I was a bit heartbroken over some guy was really true. She said (and this is still pinned in our thread), “Take him for what he is now, not what he could have been.” We’re all good story writers/makers. The idea we have for others can be the best ever when in reality it can be not too.
    Just like how Samantha created the best cool persons in her life
    , maybe that person you also think was perfect isn’t really what he/she seems to be. It’s all just made up in your mind. 
  • The end. Maybe the book is kinda far from this realization of mine, but that’s okay; this is my review hehe
  • I hope I meet a real Ava and Max in my life. 
  • Oh, another thing: seek a reality check with your friends hahaha you'll never know

Wild read, but certainly engaging! The ending baffled me, but the ride was excellent. I feel like the book has a lot to say about girl hood, but honestly I do not know what it is. The writing style is exquisite and amazing executed. This is a weird one, but it’s a fascinating read.

It got too weird and scary. Wasn't a fan and I have no interest in animal cruelty.

A highly anticipated read for me, “Bunny” was one of the most bizarre books I’ve ever read! It was one of those in which I (felt) I understood what was going on and then I absolutely did not 😆😩 Reportedly, “Bunny” was very loosely based on the 1988 film “Heathers” (which I’ve seen) and thus, the story includes themes of co-dependent friendships, frenemies, jealousy, modern day dark academia, and grandiose mental trauma (emphasis on the latter). I’m glad I’ve finally read it as I actually did end up enjoying the author’s other book “Rouge” which I read before “Bunny.” But wow, “Bunny” was at times super tough to get through.🐰

This book was very surreal! It took me a few chapters to get into it but once I was in, I was hooked. The relationships in the book are so complex, as are the characters - a lot of them were ‘love-to-hate’ characters which I enjoy. I’m not sure exactly what happened near the end, but as the whole book was very surreal I didn’t mind the ambiguity - it made sense.
