5.0
Demented, feverish, and just plain strange, Bunny forcibly blends Mean Girls with Jennifer's Body into a bloody, satirical tale about cults, cliques, academia, repression, and internalized misogyny. You can either reject the novel because of its excessive animal symbolism and juvenile main character or tumble down the rabbit hole in a blurry, imaginative frenzy that leaves you dazed long after you read it.
