There’s a lot of symbolism and metaphor here, so much so that I think it may be a little heavy-handed?

Lesbians! Samantha is a fucking lesbian and loves Ava and Max is just a projection of her true desire!!! Twist, unlocked. Calling it.

Homegirl has got to be schizophrenic the way every event in this book feels like drug-induced psychosis

Okay the pomegranates have to be symbolism seeing as Persephone’s eating the pomegranate seeds is what bound her to Hades in the Underworld

Maybe I’m stating the obvious, but the bus stop boy is real and not a Bunny experiment. He can’t be. The fact that Samantha’s bunny hurried past and got killed by a wolf apparently ? Is indicative of something else happening. Fate maybe?

Really enjoying this so far - The hivemind is weird and disorienting. Calling it now, Sam and Ava are/were in lesbians. I feel like a lot of this is commentary on the feminine mystique/feminine wiles? Lastly, it totally gives Jennifer’s Body

Ohhh it’s giving when Dr. Frankenstein was making Caliban and Prometheus in Penny Dreadful

I think Samantha has a crush on Ava at least, and at most they were full-blown lovers. But that could also just be the very sexual overtone of this book bleeding on to the characters.

Ohhhh that scene that ended prom was a little iconic. Scary as fuck, but iconic

Something I can’t help but be reminded of is how Sam’s hatred of the Bunnies reminds me of how I hated femininity when I was growing up because I thought that made me a feminist
