This book's entire plot deals with extreme torture and death, its focal point being snuff and hardcore BDSM. BDSM in general is portrayed in a very negative light, which might make some people uncomfortable. To note: two Black characters present in the book are described in a way that made me very uncomfortable and which I, even as a white person, perceived as offensive stereotypes of Black people. While I'm not 100% sure if these descriptions are indeed racist, I preferred adding a racism CW to be safe.
