Trigger warning: the last 25% of the book revolves around Mercy being sexual assaulted under the influence of fae magic, which also causes her to gaslight herself into contemplating suicide because of how the men in her life will react to her being assaulted. This was extremely triggering and reinforcing of unhealthy beliefs (even though a minor character stepped in to monologue about why this was happening to Mercy). In my opinion, this sobering topic was not handled in a sensitive manner.zellapaige's review against another edition

This book needs the most extreme set of trigger warnings possible. Despite loving the first two, this left me exhausted and overwhelmed.
TW: assault, r*pe, supernatural gaslighting, extreme manipulation, suic*de
and that probably isn't even a comprehensive list
