Graphic: Sexual assault and Sexual harassment
explaining why i believe there is graphic sexual assault in the book: the main character describes having a much older man sexually touch her without consent when she is 19. many explicitly described dubiously consensual encounters with men in the book
— dubious because she is being emotionally abused or because of her extreme drug use. i’ve no idea why other readers didn’t see it fit to add these as content warnings!!!!!
