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.🐰
