I absolutely loved this. Rachel Harrison’s style of writing is my perfect cup of tea and I love the way that she explores trauma through supernatural elements. The comparison of Rory becoming a werewolf and her sisters going through and unplanned pregnancy was really poignant for someone terrified of what pregnancy does to a body. Obviously that wasn’t all that it kind of represented in the story but it was the part that hit me the hardest. 
My only criticism is not with the book itself but the summary given for it. I did not personally find the romance to be “comedic”. No idea where that descriptor came from. This book did have me laughing to myself but I would never necessarily describe this as “comedic”.
