5.0

although this took me almost a month to read (damn you terrible attention span!), i absolutely loved this book! I spent so much of the story not knowing which character to trust and trying to work out if Bunny was truly the ‘bad guy’ or maybe just someone who was scared of his friends and what they were capable of? The descriptions and writing in this book is absolutely beautiful and i highly recommend it!
