Little Rabbit follows an unnamed narrator “Rabbit” as she starts a relationship with a rich, famous choreographer almost twice her age, the first man she’s dated in a very long time. This book handles power dynamics, queerness, a competitive friendship, and sex so gracefully, by the time the book is over its revealed some larger, thrilling secret.

One of my favorite elements of the novel is the friendship between Rabbit and her lesbian best friend, Annie. Annie and Rabbit’s relationship is tense and to see how they navigate their careers and boundaries was surprisingly real and organic.

Also, this book is ridiculous hot, and this is coming from a lesbian, like some of the most erotic scenes in literary fiction, period.

You can preorder Little Rabbit now, or wait until it comes out in May, but either way this is a genius, beautiful debut from Alyssa Songsiridej ❤️
