Publisher's summary
"Toothsome, smart, and darkly glittering, Rabbit & Juliet is a tour de force and one of my favorite reads of the year."—Brittany Cavallaro, New York Times bestselling author of A Study in Charlotte
Mixing the complicated queer love from People Like Us and the dark snark of Do Revenge—with searing commentary on misogyny and rape culture à la The Female of the Species—Pushcart Prize-winning author Rebecca Stafford wraps a haunting story inside an irreverent contemporary novel about agency, grief, and toxic first loves.
Seventeen-year-old Rabbit has been struggling to stay above water since her mom died. In the span of a year and half, her small Georgia town has become unbearably hellish: Her ex-boyfriend, resident golden boy Richard, turned into an unrelenting stalker; her friends are nonexistent; and her dad is campaigning hard for Functioning Alcoholic of the Year.
But all that changes when the sarcastic, gorgeous, and frustratingly impenetrable Juliet Bergman walks into Rabbit’s life. All hard angles and James Dean bravado, Juliet throws Rabbit a life preserver just before her depression threatened to sink her.
Then one morning, Rabbit’s ex-best-friend Sarah—Richard’s current girlfriend—shares a horrific discovery about Richard and his crew that pitches Rabbit back into darkness. The three girls vow to enact revenge on the boys for what they’ve been doing to unsuspecting girls at parties. With Juliet leading the charge and demanding blind loyalty from the girls, Rabbit falls harder for her than she thought possible. It isn't until Rabbit is faced with a startling act of violence that she must decide how far she's willing to go—for herself, for Juliet, and for justice—when love and grief threaten to topple everything.

Story
It’s 1927 and the strict laws of prohibition have done little to temper the roaring 20s nightlife, even in the nation’s capitol. Everyone knows the booze has never stopped flowing, especially amongst the rich and powerful, and seventeen-year-old Gertrude and her best friends Clara and Milly are determined to get a taste of freedom and liquor, propriety be damned. But after sneaking out of the Washington Female Seminary to visit a speakeasy, they return to discover that their controversial young headmistress, Mrs. Rose, has been murdered.

Ever since the world filled with portals to hell and bloodthirsty demons started popping out on the reg, Jasper’s life has gotten worse and worse. A teenage nobody with no friends or family, he is plagued by the life he can’t remember and the person he’s sure he’s supposed to be.

But at least here he can be near the girl he’s crushing on—Kyle Kuan, a junior member of the monster-fighting Vanguard.

Story
If Kit Larson believes one thing, it’s that the cards never lie. She’s seen it proven time and time again as a tarot reader and mystic influencer. But unfortunately the cards didn’t warn her about her most recent breakup or her parents’ divorce, so when Kit is offered a gig at another influencer’s boho-chic Joshua Tree wedding she accepts for the distraction. And distract it does when she finds out her high school crush, Julia, is the wedding planner.

Dysfunctional
I couldn’t disagree with the blurb more.
Rabbit aka Sadie befriends Juliet, in part because she has a crush. Rabbit is also mourning the loss of her mother, struggling with her father’s drinking and frustrated that the friends she pushed away have stayed away.
I disliked Juliet from her first scenes screwing with the moderator of a self help group. Rabbit was so needy for attention and positive regard she overlooked Juliet’s sociopathic tendencies, like leaving Rabbit and another friend in the middle of a lake, naked and without life preservers. Juliet is just as abusive to Rabbit as her ex, Richard although in different ways.
Revenge doesn’t work for me when a sociopath is leading the charge.
As much as I sympathized with Rabbit, I didn’t fully buy into her character. Most high schoolers don’t speak in SAT words like Rabbit.
RABBIT & JULIET is well-written, in terms of wordbuilding. I liked the premise for the book more than the book.
