Definitely check out the content warnings before reading this one because some of them came out of left field. I'm usually a horror/thriller reader, but there were a few scenes that were so jarringly dropped into this story that I got uncomfortable.

Spoiler
My only complaint was how little we got from Sadie during the last quarter of the book. But now that I write this maybe that was fully intentional. We would get Sam’s side of the story often when he was really going through it, so I was waiting for Sadie’s side to come and it never did. I could be wrong though and maybe her side wasn’t necessary.Graphic: Suicide, Hate crime, Medical trauma, Infidelity, Medical content, Racism, Blood, Death, Mass/school shootings, Murder, Physical abuse, Pregnancy, Sexual violence, Death of parent, Grief, Gun violence, Car accident, and Homophobia
Moderate: Misogyny, Cancer, and Sexism

There is mention of an animal injury (possibly unintentionally caused by a person). The animal survives, recovers, and thrives. Can easily skip over the paragraph that discusses the injury to get to the happier times.buckleburyfairie's review against another edition

Definite content warning about a professor/freshman student relationship that has nonconsensual BDSM aspects, and a separate content warning for gun violence.
