THE TIKTOK SENSATIONMeet BUNNY: the darkly funny, spellbinding trip of a novel that EVERYONE is talking about
'No punches pulled, no hilarities dodged, no meme unmangled. O Bunny you are sooo genius!' MARGARET ATWOODWe call them Bunnies because that is what they call each other. Seriously. Bunny.Samantha Heather Mackey is an outsider in her small, highly selective MFA program at Warren University. In fact, she is utterly repelled by the rest of her fiction writing cohort - a clique of unbearably twee rich girls who call each other 'Bunny'.But then the Bunnies issue her with an invitation and Samantha finds herself inexplicably drawn to their front door, across the threshold, and down their rabbit hole.Blending sharp satire with fairytale horror, Bunny provides a hilarious look at the dark side of female friendship from one of fiction's most original voices.

'Made me nod and cackle in terrified recognition.' LENA DUNHAM

This is weird-girl fiction at its finest. Culty, unsettling, and altogether hallucinogenic, the Bunnies will make you feel as if you are right there with them. While not for the squeamish, Mona Awad writes with such conviction (even when our protagonist is confused out of her mind) that it's impossible to put down.
