Fall is finally here, and what better way to embrace the cozy season than with a heartwarming fantasy romance that’s also hilariously chaotic? Today, I’m diving into a delightful read that perfectly captures the autumnal spirit (and somehow manages to make me laugh out loud): How to Help a Hungry Werewolf by Charlotte Stein

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Perfect for: Cozy fantasy lovers seeking a character-driven tale with a spicy second-chance romance.

A Curvy Girl’s Magical Journey…With a Side of Mischief

This book follows Cassie, a plus-size heroine who finds herself drawn back to her hometown after a tragic event. As she navigates the familiar streets, she’s confronted with old friendships, a mysterious connection to the town’s magical secrets, and a whole lot of accidental mayhem. The cozy atmosphere, complete with autumnal foliage and a touch of paranormal magic, creates a truly enchanting backdrop for Cassie’s very eventful journey.

A Spicy Second-Chance Romance

For those seeking a little spice to go with their cozy fantasy, How to Help a Hungry Werewolf delivers. The relationship between Cassie and her paranormal love interest is both youthful and exciting, with plenty of chemistry, playful banter, and just enough chaos to keep things interesting. While the second half of the book does get a bit steamy, I appreciated that it avoided the knotting trope, which is a personal ick for me.

Overall, How to Help a Hungry Werewolf is a delightful blend of fantasy, romance, and cozy charm that will leave you wanting more…and probably laughing until your sides hurt. If you’re looking for a character-driven tale with a touch of magic, a dash of spice, and a whole lot of hilarious chaos, this book is a perfect choice for your autumnal reading list.
