Bunny by Mona Awad Book Review

Have you read Bunny?! Bunny by Mona Awad Released June 11, 2019 Dark Fiction   |   Goodreads   |   Amazon   Source: R eceived for Review Consideration The Vegetarian meets Heathers in this darkly funny, seductively strange novel about a lonely graduate student drawn into a clique of rich girls who seem to move and speak as one "We were just these innocent girls in the night trying to make something beautiful. We nearly died. We very nearly did, didn't we?" Samantha Heather Mackey couldn't be more of an outsider in her small, highly selective MFA program at New England's Warren University. A scholarship student who prefers the company of her dark imagination to that of most people, she is utterly repelled by the rest of her fiction writing cohort--a clique of unbearably twee rich girls who call each other "Bunny," and are often found entangled in a group hug so tight they become one.

Dark Is When the Devil Comes by Daisy Pearce | Horror Fiction Audiobook Review

Image
This was great on audio. My 2 Cents for Free! Dark Is When the Devil Comes by Daisy Pearce Released April 2026 Source: Netgalley See more @ Goodreads I listened to Dark Is When the Devil Comes on audio over two days in broad daylight, and surprisingly it really creeped me out. Most books leave me feeling eh when it comes to the creeping dread but this one did get under my skin a few times. The narrator did a fantastic job with the characters too; expressing their fear, anxiety, bitchiness and sometimes confusion about events past and present. A meh narrator can break a book like this but in this case the narration enhances the story perfectly. This is one of those books that is best going into blind. Even the blurb here is vague about events. Too many of them lately compare everything to something else and/or give it all away and I’m so glad this one didn’t so I won’t either. So all I’ll say is this: Hazel returns to her childhood home and attempts to reconnect with her estranged siste...
