I've seen a lot of reviews mentioning Gone Girl. I missed the marketing for this book so I might be late but let me say it's nothing like that book. To be clear, Gone Girl is brilliant, but this is not that kind of story. Not to spoil too much, but the biggest distinctions for me are 1) Gone Girl is about revenge and this story is about the beginnings of healing and 2) Amy acts, while Tiffani is acted upon.
Graphic: Racial slurs and Mass/school shootings
Moderate: Rape
Minor: Adult/minor relationship, Bullying, Drug use, Eating disorder, Misogyny, Panic attacks/disorders, Xenophobia, Religious bigotry, and Medical trauma
For the graphic: The slur is used once, the main character is disgusted by it. The shooting takes up a chapter. The moderate: It is not a minute by minute description but every act is described and you know enough. The minor: Teen behavior and adult trauma responses. The "adult/minor" tag I added becausealexandra_dillard's review against another edition
