Why read it?
1 author picked Cursed Bunny as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I read this book late at night while recovering from jetlag, and it was either the perfect book to read late at night while my mind’s guard was down or the worst book to do this with.

From Tiffany's list on riddles, wrapped in a mystery, inside an engima.
