Samantha Heather Mackey is an outsider in her small, highly selective MFA program at Warren University. In fact, she is utterly repelled by the rest of her fiction writing cohort - a clique of unbearably twee rich girls who call each other 'Bunny'.
But then the Bunnies issue her with an invitation and Samantha finds herself inexplicably drawn to their front door, across the threshold, and down their rabbit hole.
Blending sharp satire with fairy-tale horror, Bunny is a spellbinding trip of a novel from one of fiction's most original new voices.

We call them Bunnies because that's what they call each other. 1

I thought Bunny was a delight. It's a blend of the movie Heathers, the TV series Stranger Things and a Stephen King novel. Samantha like Alice should not have gone the rabbit hole, especially one laced with sharp knives and dripping blood. The book is very funny at times but equally dark and disturbing. The Bunnies seen innocent at first, just vapid rich girls who see Samantha as some kind of social experiment to pity. But then Samantha discovers just how dark their collective hearts really are.
