Personally not a favorite of mine because it moved into the story super fast. Marketed as a romance story when that really isn't the main focus of the book and the romance seems forced and unrealistic. Would like to see the story lean into its historical context a bit more.

There is one graphic scene depicting the reversal of a drug overdose, including medicinal injections and the use of a stomach pump. Discussion of delusions as a result of schizophrenia. Several scenes take place in a mental health facility, where prescription pills are given. Period-typical scenes of smoking.
