Sometimes books that satirize the pretentiousness of academia end up coming across as, well, pretentious. But Bunny is funny and unhinged, and it doesn't feel elitist, even though Awad is clearly very clever. I can see why this one wouldn't work for everyone, but I devoured it.

It’s so unexpected, so different from anything I’ve ever read. It is pure imagination. One of those books that you have to unpack and unpack and unpack to see that all along, there were bits and pieces hiding in plain sight. The recurring themes and the ode to Alice in Wonderland in a university setting that makes you wonder what’s real and what’s not. But I think the strongest thing that stuck with me was this
How did Mona Awad even pitch this to her agents? It’s so ludicrous that it’s genius. I can’t not give it a five stars, not because of how it made me feel or that I related with any depth to any part of the story, but because of the sheer magnitude of the creation of this story. As you are reading you are falling down down down the rabbit hole, but you’re not even sure if you’re in the rabbit hole. It’s absurd and brilliant and I can’t think of anyone to compare Awad to. I would even say this is the kind of book teenagers should be studying from in English class with it’s string of references and comparisons, with its unique ability to put you directly into someone’s mind. Bizarre and thrilling, and not in a normal way.

I really enjoyed the way Mona Awad played with narrative form.
