I love these books, which read like really violent sports manga, but they're definitely not for everyone.

This book is bad and troubling in many ways and I can't recommend it but I had to know why everyone is so obsessed with it and I can definitely see why it's compelling....more thoughts to come

“Remember this feeling. This is the moment you stop being the rabbit.”

Is it problematic? Yes. Does it make sense? No. Is it poorly-edited? Yes. AND YET. Here I am, six months and two rereads later, with a bedroom full of foxes and Andrew Minyard fan art, simping over another murderous blonde twink, practically doomsday prepping for the release of The Sunshine Court. What has my life become?

I don’t think I have ever read a book with such an intense “it’s complicated” when asked if the characters are loveable

This is objectively a bad book. It’s chock full of misinformation about mental health, trauma p0rn and edgy shit BUT, you truly cannot help bonding with these characters. I hate how much I loved these people. I can’t in good conscience though give it a higher rating.
