This is not your average romance story. For me this was a psychological drama, and a really good one at that. The concept of being "allergic" to men might seem silly to some people, but this story provides the explanation and background to defend it. Her fear has roots that branch off and spiral into a whole mess of trauma much deeper than what meets the surface which cripples her ability to navigate through daily life. I loved this way more than I expected.
If you like Howls Moving Castle or Ancient Magus Bride type stuff, this gives off a similar feel.
