Mona Awad used the r-slur. I understand what she was trying to convey, but I didn’t think it was necessary or tasteful.seregelda's review against another edition

This book was confusing and weird--bad weird. Too weird for me. Was it supposed to be horror? Seemed pretty horrific to me. A lady on tiktok recommended it, I will not be taking her recommendations again!

I do think the main thing I struggled with was pinpointing the satire. The Bunnies are clearly satire, but Sam herself (+ Ava) is such a capital O Outsider (an argument which the book so kindly preempts) that she also comes off as a cliche. Despite the fact I should relate to her in this way, it's hard to sink into her at first. The outsiderness is strongest when it focuses on real signifiers of privilege/lack thereof. Not so much when focused on superficial aspects of the super-feminine that are harmless.
P.S. Found Sam's narration oddly ableist for a protagonist we're supposed to find sympathetic.
