We Love You, Bunny

by Mona Awad

Frankenstein meets Heathers in this dazzling, hilarious, and deliciously dark follow-up to the viral sensation Bunny, from Margaret Atwood's 'literary heir', Mona Awad

 

Fall down the rabbit hole into the intoxicating world of Mona Awad's second darkly comic tour de force set in the Bunny-verse. From the queen of the fever-dream herself comes the pulse-pounding sequel, prequel, and stand-alone companion to her cult classic novel Bunny.



Samantha Heather Mackey was originally ostracised by the clique of creepy-sweet rich girls in her highly selective MFA program who call each other 'Bunny'. Then she found herself thrown into the violently surreal world of their off-campus 'Workshop', where monstrous creations were conjured with deadly and wondrous consequences.

​

When We Love You, Bunny opens, Sam has just published her first novel to critical acclaim. But at a New England stop on her book tour, her one-time frenemies, furious at the way they've been portrayed, kidnap her. With Sam bound and gagged, we plunge headfirst into the wickedly intoxicating fairy tale they offer up as their side of the story. The Bunnies take turns recounting the birth of their unholy alliance, their discovery of their unusual creative powers - and the phantasmagoric adventure of conjuring their first creation. Dazzlingly original and wildly hilarious, We Love You, Bunny promises another captivating descent into dark academia and a profound exploration of just how deeply our fictions reveal the truth of our hearts.

The Bunnies are sooo back!! This time, they have their own story to tell, and they won’t let you out of their grasp until they’ve told it exactly how it went. Mona Awad revisits her viral sensation with a fairy-tale slasher which explores both the horrors and the wonders of creation in the most girl-cult way possible. A little bit Frankenstein, a little bit Heathers, and altogether bizarre, We Love You Bunny is the sequel/prequel/standalone I was hoping for. I read this as though I was held captive by the Bunnies myself, and I enjoyed every wacky, hallucinogenic moment of it.
