Poetic and disturbing, vile and tempting. Vore will take you on a ride of mental manipulation, each nauseating loop twisting your mind with secrecy and lies.
The psychological pull will consume you. It will fester in your head, convince you it’s oxygen, just to strangle you and feed off the turmoil, might even riddle you with insistent voices.
Which way is right? Which way is left? Who’s a liar and who’s at fault? But the real question is… will the pattern of insanity repeat itself?
Hey, I’m Razor. Welcome to the shit show I call my life. All that up there? That’s me already tugging your strings. When you have a dark secret like ours, you keep extra shovels just to make sure it stays buried. Especially when the truth is more damaging than the toll of staggering mind games.
All cuts bleed eventually, though. The pressure you enforced will lift and the stench of iron will stain your throat. It drips, each splash making you swallow the walking rot you’ve become.
She’s too sweet to me. Too sweet for me. Bunny is the embodiment of anesthesia, a sedation I need in round the clock doses. But she doesn’t remember the fallout that got us trapped here, the massacre that made the gates of an amusement park our asylum. And that’s for the best—because bombs are fragile.
Bunny, Bunny, Bunny.
There’s nothing fun about slipping away each day. There’s nothing amusing about not knowing who you are. And there’s nothing thrilling about living within parasitic secrecy that chews through you to make you small and rotten. I’m getting my answers. And I’m leaving... But truthfully, I’m just as sick and twisted as everyone else in this house.
I should hate him. I shouldn’t let him touch me or dig a grave in my brain that’s full of the sadistic salaciousness he infects me with. Wanting to run away is a constant wound he tenderly covers so that he can leave his own marks on me. And I let him. Because I’d rather be claimed by the mouth that doesn’t let me slip than by the park that haunts me and makes me weak.
Razor wants me to be strong. He makes me suffer internal battles so that he can be the one to anesthetize the contending thoughts that make me sink.
Yeah so MJ is an auto-buy author for me at this point, and this book absolutely delivered. Going in, remember this is horror romance, and check those trigger warnings before diving in. But if you’re into stories that push boundaries while pulling you deeper with every chapter, this one hits hard. It was eerie, haunting and utterly consuming. What I loved most, though, was how it made me think. The plot kept twisting in ways that forced me to pause, reassess, and try to piece everything together before the next reveal. Speaking of that next reveal—I need part two immediately, I’m not okay.
Okay and then Razor and Bunny. My babies 🖤 Razor is so manipulative but everything he does, is to keep his girl safe.
"I kill for you, Bunny. Always have and always will."
"Because I'm fucking sick for you."
And I’m going to protect them with my whole heart.
Isn’t love unconditional? When you meet the darkest, most deranged pieces of someone, but don’t build their entire character off it because they’re just pieces. They’re fragments of the whole being. Not who they are.
This book was insane.
I did not know what was happening and truthfully I still don’t. This is very much psychological horror. You’re starting out assuming one thing. Everything is mixed around in the middle. And by the end it’s right back to you being confused. This ends on a cliffhanger so be prepared.
I am still reeling from this one and it’s been 24 hours. I’m still processing. The ending. The popsicle. The throat. The formaldehyde fish tank. The spinal columns. The alarm clock. The voices. I have so many questions. I’m very much ready for book 2. I enjoyed the hell out of the dynamic of Razor and Bunny. And all the other characters and what their parts and rolls are in this.
Definitely an absolute mind f*ck. In the best way.
This was so exciting to read. The plot... the spice... it was giving everything I knew it would. If you have ever read any of MJ's books, you know this girl leaks literary perfection into anything she writes! The setting, the characters, and everything is perfect for a true horror romance. The freaking cliffhanger!!!!! I can not wait for part two!!
Oh MJ, the things you do to my heart ❤️🔥 hand over Part 2, I beg of thee!
Bunny will have you feeling a little woozy, the chaos that is her brain. You just want to grab her, look her in the eyes and just hold her but she would probably hurt you if you did that 😂
Scene is a carnival/amusement park and Bunny is the aerial silks girly. She hones her craft to damn near perfection but she keeps thinking she isn’t because of the owner/ringleader. Honestly, SCREW HIM 🤭
“You are an integral part of the house. We can’t lose you.”
Now Razor, baby Razor will have you swooning for the psych ward bad boy 🫠 He wants to own her, be her only option, he needs her and only her.
“I guess she really doesn’t wanna play seven minutes in the psych ward with me.”
Now you would think they wouldn’t work together because she is the soft bunny, does what she’s told when and how, she observes and doesn’t really hangout with the rest of the crew and Razor is rough, protective, insane, possessive, an infection.
“I’ll pester her like an infection until her blood is convinced to love me. Always on my fucking mind.”
MJ has my heart 🖤 just like razor has weaseled his way into bunny’s heart, that’s what MJ has done yet again. Without fail, every book she has came out with I fall in love 💋

Vore isn’t the kind of book you simply read. It’s the kind that settles under your skin and lingers there long after you’ve turned the last page. There’s something deeply unsettling about the way it pulls you into Bunny’s mind, making you feel every flicker of doubt, every quiet unraveling, every desperate need to understand what’s happening around her. It’s heavy, immersive, and at times almost disorienting in the best way.
Bunny feels real in a way that’s hard to explain. She’s soft but not weak, observant but overlooked, and constantly at war with her own thoughts. Watching her try to piece things together while being surrounded by chaos is both frustrating and heartbreaking. You want clarity for her, peace for her, but the story doesn’t hand that over easily, and that’s what makes it so compelling.
And then there’s Razor.
He’s not safe. He’s not good in the way you’d want him to be. But he is magnetic. Every scene with him feels charged, like something could snap at any second. The way he moves through the story; protective, obsessive, calculated- almost makes it impossible to look away, even when you know you probably should.
Am I insane for being attracted to Razor? Probably 🤭
Because the truth is, his presence adds this intensity that the story thrives on. He’s not there to be justified or softened. He just is. And somehow, in all that darkness, there’s a strange consistency to him that makes you understand why Bunny is drawn in, even if it terrifies you.
The setting only amplifies everything. The carnival atmosphere, the performances, the sense that something is always just slightly off… It creates this constant tension that never really lets up. You feel like you’re watching from the wings, waiting for something to go wrong, knowing it will.
What stands out the most is how the story balances emotion with unease. It doesn’t rely on shock alone; it builds connection first, then slowly twists it. You care about these characters, even when they make choices that leave you questioning everything.
By the end, you’re left with more questions than answers, but it doesn’t feel incomplete—it feels intentional. Like this is only the beginning of something bigger, darker, and even more consuming.
This isn’t a comfortable read, and it’s not supposed to be. It’s intense, emotional, and a little haunting….. but that’s exactly what makes it unforgettable.
I need everyone to understand that this book made me feel like I was being psychologically waterboarded inside a haunted circus tent while a demon with attachment issues stared directly into my soul. LITERALLY.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
That’s right. Six stars. Against my better judgment, or maybe my best. Idk. But yes?
This book is intentionally confusing in a way that somehow becomes part of the experience. Memories feel corrupted. Reality bends. You stop trusting what’s real at the exact same pace Bunny does, and by the end I genuinely felt manipulated alongside her.
AND YET???
I could not stop reading.
Razor is one of the most deeply unsettling love interests I’ve read in a long time because he doesn’t feel human. I mean genuinely WRONG. There are multiple moments where the book basically screams “this thing is wearing a man like a costume.”
The Athanasius reveal??? The “metal separating my brain” line??? The scars on his back??? The memory manipulation??? The way Bunny seems simultaneously terrified of him and emotionally tied to him before she even understands why???
And then the book has the AUDACITY to throw in lines like “My butt crack is sweaty.”
I was losing my mind.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN RAZOR MAY BE DEAD? WAS HE EVER ALIVE?? IS HE DEATH? WHAT IS THIS? AND DAMIEN?! THE FISH TANK. THE ALARM CLOCK. BUNNY'S MONEY. I'm pulling my hair out.
Also, I don’t trust ANYONE. Not Carl. Not Damien. Not the circus. Not the doctors. Not Bunny’s memories. Not Razor. Especially not Razor.
Yet, somehow Razor genuinely seems to love Bunny in the only broken, horrifying way he knows how.
By the end I wasn’t even trying to solve the mystery anymore. I was standing in the wreckage, holding onto my clown nose while MJ Morellatu whispered “Part II ❤️”
I have never been more annoyed(in a good way,)fascinated, entertained, confused, and emotionally manipulated by a book in my life.
Would I recommend it? Yes… yes. Absolutely yes. Why? Not because it gives you clean cut answers. Actually, it gives you NONE unless you're drowning out the noise of distraction and PAY ATTENTION. Do not expect closure here. This is the kind of book that IMMEDIATELY pulls you in for a re-read the MOMENT you finish it. You're frantically skipping back to page one to see what flipped through the cracks on first read.

𝓥𝓸𝓻𝓮.... I wish there was a way for me to perfectly introduce this, but as MJ says it best, 𝙎𝙩𝙚𝙥 𝙧𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙪𝙥!
Vore is unlike anything I've read, and I will say this every time I read something of MJ's; She is hands down my favorite author. Vore is a visceral experience. It feels as if I'm feeling what they're feeling, and questioning everything. You can feel the sting of tears behind Bunny's eyes, the bright lights of the stage as she dissociates through her performances. The only way I could describe Razor and Bunny's story is soft carnality that you maybe should run from, but it feels right.
Bunny and Razor, as well as all the performers of Vore, have gone through emotional and mental distress unlike anything you could imagine for yourself. And I would stand ten toes down for my Bunny girl. I love her. I understand her. The way her brain works is oh so similar to mine. If only we could turn it off. If you like a sweaty, bloody, emotional, experience of obsession, Vore is for you. Honestly this will be one of my all time favorite reads.
Razor will and has done anything and everything to protect Bunny. I'd even go to say everyone else, too. He doesn't do anything for just any reason. He's smart, the protector. But he's just as demented as Bunny, just as haunted.
You will question everyone, about everything, at every corner. MJ knows how to keep you thinking, looking, chasing every clue and never giving up, just like Bunny. She's tired of being in the dark, and her curious mind is slowly unraveling at the things being hidden from her.
She's had enough. Bunny is ready to rip the curtains down from Vore to see the truth. And Razor will always be there to cheer on his star girl.
I honestly don’t even know where to start with this review other than saying I desperately need the next book immediately because that ending wrecked me!
This book was dark, chaotic, creepy, and completely addictive. Razor is manipulative, obsessive, and constantly controlling Bunny “for her own protection” — but the question is, protection from what… or who? Bunny has no memory of her life before two years ago, and watching her struggle to piece together what’s real versus what might be hallucinations had me hooked from start to finish. Her connection with Razor is toxic, terrifying, emotional, and somehow weirdly sweet all at once. She fears him, trusts him, and can’t stay away from him. Honestly? Same.
Razor is absolutely the kind of man you’d run far away from in real life, but somehow this book made me want to wrap him in a blanket and keep him for myself. The man is unhinged when it comes to Bunny, and he’ll do literally anything to protect her.
I also loved the creepy circus setting and the cast of strange, secretive characters living there. Everyone is hiding something, and I need answers about all of it — especially those VHS tapes. And that ending? Brutal. I need the next book now.
MJ, girly pop. You are amazing. 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🖤
This book gives you every emotion possible. I love them, I hate them, but overall, you will LOVE them. Everyone’s keeping secrets from Bunny, but it’s to keep her safe. Right? I fucking hope so, because Razor, you manipulative ass man 😭🤣 He LOVES her and he will do ANYTHING for her (kill for her..) (as he should).
The storyline keeps you entertained and wanting more, which, btw, need part II ASAP ROCKYYYYY. Please and thank you queen.
Anything MJ writes, I read. Instant buy always. 🖤✨
Obsession…I am obsessed. Razor and Bunny have ripped my heart out and put my spine on display. It’s not just their twisted parts that have knotted me into this, it’s the entire story. What is happening? Where are her memories? Why can’t I guess what’s coming next?!! I need more.
I need part 2….i need answers…..I need the VHS tapes.
Read Vore. I’m not a writer so my review is crap, but as a reader I can say this will wrap you in silk, twist parts you didn’t know where there and drop you into obsession.
I’m literally ITCHING TO KNOW WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING
Was I confused for a solid 75% of this book? Yes. But also you’re supposed to be confused which I think just sucked me in even more. Idk who’s real, who’s telling the truth (not that very many truths for revealed), and who to believe. At this point I can’t tell if me or Bunny is more confused. But I’m HERE FOR IT.
Also Razor? I would be “roommates” with him in the psych ward. But he’s not… ifykyk… right? right.
