yeah no absolutely not. i should have stayed far away from this one after seeing praise from lena dunham.

i'm not getting anything deep or interesting here, just a grating read about a boring af MC who is extremely special and lonely and also hates women. (of course the specific women she hates in this book are Bad so we're supposed to be like "yeah ur right women suck!!" imagine reading a book about a cult of pick me girls from tiktok. this is that book.)

the off the wall narration and events of BUNNY are supposed to be its strongest asset, but for me, they're just laughable. until it keeps going for 300+ pages. then it's annoying.

anyway, i respect you all for liking this one, but it's a no from me 😤
