Ooh I loved this book! It was just so much fun! I was so lost for so long! But then it all came together (with some help from Reddit) and it was so well done!
My theory for so long was that Samantha was in love with Ava but turns out Ava wasn’t even real! And that the bunnies used Samantha’s instability and vulnerability to get her in on the cult!?!?!
I loved the girlies fighting! Lived for the drama!
Also when Sam gets ‘captured’ (I don’t think that was real either) “I watch her open a black book that reads My Sad Girl Novel by Samantha Mackey on the cover.” Had me cackling! They got her good! Ooh!
This has had the best twisted psychological thriller energy and plot that I’ve read! Reminded me of the secret history but better! Less sexual violence! Which is of course ideal!

UH...I don't even know what to say or how to rate this? Did I like it? Did I dislike it? I have no idea...I liked the narration style, but did I like the content? I'll need to think on it LOL What I can say is that this was a very odd experience.

At first it was alittle difficult to get into, but then it was so weird in a good way. The twist actually shocked me. I also love the colors of the cover.

honestly this was a let down... i had heard that this book was dark and weird and it sort of fell short on both fronts for me. i wasn't expecting it to take a magical realism route and that threw me for a loop. i wasn't really buying into the whole turning animals into people thing because to be honest, it wasn't really explored enough. this is just a personal thing, but i wanted it to be more gruesome and gross and it never delivered. i found all of the characters to be boring and one-dimensional, ESPECIALLY the bunnies -- i didn't like how they were just portrayed as girly and boy-crazy and evil and that's about it. they were not humanized at all and it made me not gaf about them. the main character was giving "i'm not like other girls" like crazyyyyy. also, the prose was repetitive and pretentious and thought it was a lot smarter than it actually is. the concept is interesting but i just wish it was executed better.
p.s. anyone who says that this is similar to the secret history is lying through their teeth or delusional. like i guess they both have the dark academia thing going on but the secret history is literary and gorgeous and this is... simply not.
