No punches pulled, no hilarities dodged, no meme unmangled! O Bunny you are sooo genius!, Hilarious and subversive, magical and knife-sharp. This novel – a send-up of academia, an astute exploration of class in creative circles, and an ode to the uncanny power of art – confirms Mona Awad as one of our great chroniclers of what it means to be alive right now, It is not an exaggeration to say that I devoured Bunny – teeth, fur, claws and all... A truly delectable novel that is equal parts wit, fancy, and wickedness. Unafraid to challenge some sacrosanct notions about women artists, female friendship, and writing, her book is a compulsively readable testament to the sheer creative force of loneliness and longing', One of the most pristine and delightful attacks on popular girls since Clueless. Made me nod and cackle in terrified recognition, The Secret History meets Jennifer's Body. This brilliant, sharp, weird book skewers the heightened rhetoric of obsessive female friendship in a way I don't think I've ever seen before. I loved it and I couldn't put it down
