Praise for SO THIRSTY
Praise for BLACK SHEEP
Praise for SUCH SHARP TEETH
“Such Sharp Teeth is wonderfully witty and wild. It’s also heady and daring in how the story explores friend and family dynamics, the anger women aren’t allowed to express within our culture, and the wounds that transform us against our will. The next full moon I see, I’ll be rooting for Rory.”
–Paul Tremblay, author of The Cabin at the End of the World and The Pallbearers Club
“Rachel Harrison’s razor sharp prose cuts straight to the bone. With its quick-witted dialogue and acutely human regard for its cursed characters, Such Sharp Teeth solidifies her spot as the alpha author of heartfelt horror. Never has a novel made me feel more like a chew toy and I loved every nibble of it.”
–Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Ghost Eaters
“No one is writing horror that explores the intricacies of femininity like Rachel Harrison. This brilliant story is about accepting your identity, your past, love, friendship, and family… all wrapped up in a deeply satisfying and scary monster tale. Such Sharp Teeth is as irresistible as the pull of the full moon—I couldn’t tear myself away.”
–Mallory O’Meara, bestselling author of The Lady From the Black Lagoon
“Rachel Harrison has written a witty and wholly original exploration of lycanthropy, trauma, and the monsters that reside within all of us, if we dig deep enough to find them. Such Sharp Teeth is an incredibly compelling read that’s full of horror and heart. It’s the werewolf book I’ve been waiting for and I can’t recommend it enough.”
–Alexis Henderson, author of The Year of the Witching and House of Hunger
“At turns heart-warming, heart-rending, and a little monstrous, Harrison’s latest gives anything but your typical big bad wolf story. Such Sharp Teeth runs slick with bone-crackling wit and cunning, but don’t be fooled by that grin; this wolf has a bite.”
–Hailey Piper, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Queen of Teeth
“With prose as sleek as a wolf in full stride, Such Sharp Teeth feels at once like a classic werewolf story, and something delightfully new. It’s a breathless, poignant, blood-and-flesh-licking tale that asks: when our distractions and coping mechanisms are shredded away, who–or what–are we? And it confirms once again that Rachel Harrison is horror’s poet laureate of quarter-life dread and existential transition.”
–Nat Cassidy, author of Mary: An Awakening of Terror
Praise for Cackle
“This witty page-turner put its spell on me! Cackle is a charming and very contemporary story about self-realization—a gal-pal Addams Family, in the best way. Clever and massively enjoyable.”
—Zoje Stage, USA Today and internationally bestselling author of Baby Teeth and Getaway
“Wry, dark, and deliciously witchy. I loved every page of this gripping feminist tale.”
—Alexis Henderson, author of The Year of the Witching
“Cackle is that rare book that has it all: a searingly honest portrayal of all-consuming heartbreak, an exploration of the pitfalls of making new friends past thirty, a few revenge fantasies come to life, and a whole lotta witchcraft. Harrison’s clever prose will have you laughing and crying at once, and I promise you will never look at spiders the same way again.”
—Molly Pohlig, author of The Unsuitable
“Reading Cackle was like stumbling upon a candy cottage in a dark wood: utterly surprising, deceptively delightful, and a little bit scary, too. I gobbled it up in a weekend, cackling all the while.”
—Emily M. Danforth, author of Plain Bad Heroines and The Miseducation of Cameron Post
“Cackle delivers a lesson that every woman needs to hear: embrace your inner witch! Sweet, sinister, and 100 percent delightful.”
—Alma Katsu, author of The Hunger and The Deep
“Cackle is an all-too-relatable story about finding your inner strength even when you’re at rock bottom, tackling the realities of post-break-up life with levity and charm. This book is an absolute delight, and everyone needs a friend like Sophie.”
– Genevieve Gornichec, author of The Witch’s Heart
“It’s no surprise that Harrison’s latest traffics in witchcraft, but there’s nothing predictable about her take. She writes about women’s autonomy and how it can be seen as a threat; about heteronormative romance and how it can suppress who women truly are. It’s served in a friendship story that showcases Harrison’s strength at writing powerful and empowered women with razor-sharp wit and a touch of darkness. This book wonders why this kind of woman is feared; in Harrison’s hands, we’re totally under their spell.”
— Library Journal (Starred Review)
Praise for The Return
“Marvelous. The storytelling is quick, well plotted and engrossing.” – The New York Times
“A sharp, refreshing book about the mortifying ordeal of being known. This is a book that understands how terrifying a lasting friendship can truly be; Harrison brilliantly highlights the way friendships can tether a person to their worst memories, their worst selves, and their worst nightmares.”—Sarah Gailey, National bestselling author of Magic for Liars
“By turns scary and funny, horrifying and real, The Return is impossible to put down. It takes an honest, scathing look at female friendship while at the same time pulling the reader into a perfect nightmare of a story.”–Simone St. James, USA Today bestselling author of The Sun Down Motel
“Hair-raising horror and pure entertainment…The tension and nuance of Harrison’s complicated female friendships add depth to an already delicious, chilling debut.”–Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“Combining suspense and horror with razor-sharp insights into the nature of female friendships, Rachel Harrison’s The Return is a creepy, nerve-wracking, page-turning addition to the emerging field of horror thrillers.”—Alma Katsu, Author of The Deep and The Hunger
“The Return is supernatural horror at its very best! Sharp dialogue, complex relationships and mind-bending action will have readers locking their doors and checking under their beds. Rachel Harrison has reinvented this genre and will surely be hailed as a pioneer among her peers.”—Wendy Walker, National Bestselling Author of The Night Before
“The Return is moving and terrifying in equal measure. A brilliant rumination on friendship, pain, and the myriad of unsuccessful ways we all try to run from our past and fill the holes in our hearts. Harrison’s keen prose won’t let you go. Be warned, you’ll double check the locks on your doors before you try to sleep.”—Mallory O’Meara, National bestselling author of The Lady from the Black Lagoon
“Harrison’s The Return expertly treads the fine line between thriller and horror. It’s as deliciously creepy as opening up a box of candy-coated spiders—and eating them all in one sitting.“–Christina Dalcher, author of Vox
