Staff Picks: Bunny by Mona Awad

When outsider Samantha gets invited to her fellow MFA student’s exclusive “Smut Salon,” everything changes. The cohort- who call each other Bunnies- are up to something weird, something Frankensteinian, that might involve drugs, monsters, and actual bunnies.

I didn’t think I was going to make this a staff pick, but I can’t stop thinking about it. Honestly one of the weirdest books I’ve ever read- but it’s also smart, funny, and satirical without sacrificing its own weird internal logic.  The creepy atmosphere of a New England campus in fall, crumbling leaves, and black clad mysterious feathery characters makes this an absolute seasonal delight.
