I always like the point where a YA series turns from adventures to a desperate fight for freedom, and this book is no exception. Quite the tragic turn of events at the end, but they set up for some potentially good ways out. The first half is a bit frustrating as the focus is placed on rebuilding and crumbling over and over again for the main character, but it finds its direction very well for the second half.
Moderate: Death, Violence, Grief, Death of parent, Murder, Fire/Fire injury, and Colonisation
Minor: Body horror, Bullying, Deadnaming, Self harm, Slavery, Suicidal thoughts, Torture, Blood, Abandonment, and Alcohol
