Bunny

For me to properly articulate my thoughts I'd probably have to spoil a ton of shit so I'll keep it brief. I have one complaint about this book and it's that it seems kind of... juvenile? It's horror, it's weird, it's strange and gore-y but you know... idk it just comes across as a book that could very well have been set in high school and you wouldn't notice a difference. I didn't google anything about it beforehand - all I heard was that it's unhinged so it piqued my interest but now that I've finished it, yeah I can see that it's a young adult novel, particularly because of the main character who got more and more yawn worthy as time went on... The book begins in somewhat of a Heathers/Mean Girls setting and then transforms into more of a horrorish story but it's filled with tropes I feel like I grew up seeing everywhere. The ignored male friend who's a good guy(tm), the sarcastic goth bff, the quirky teacher, joining the mean girls, ignoring your true bestie etc etc. I think this book could've been a lot more and the ending left me kind of... dissatisfied! I was mostly interested in the Bunnies and how they came to be, their obsession with men that displays a weird (lack of?) relationship with sex and their friendship. In the end the book ends on a very meh and cliche note. I loved their speak and rituals and wanted to know more!!!

One thing I can relate to, is feeling like an outcast in a language/writing related degree but eh... Not enough of a reason to fully enjoy this. This is totally on me for falling for a tiktok recommendation... I mean it wasn't TERRIBLE but just, ugh, missed opportunity!
