I would recommend this to those of you who like sci-fis that aren't heavy handed with technical jargon and dystopians that aren't horrendously dark/graphic.
Moderate: Child death, Confinement, Gun violence, Violence, War, Death, Fire/Fire injury, and Cursing
Minor: Suicidal thoughts, Incest, Infertility, Grief, Classism, Injury/Injury detail, Murder, Medical content, and Death of parent

“And yet, his feet moved. They carried him down the hidden passageway and into a room full of the strange and curious, a place that made the charting of stars seem insignificant, a den where the sense of the world’s scale, of size, took on wholly new proportions.”
“And so the descent, this spiraling downward, was much like the drowning that swallowed her at night. It felt inexorable and inextricable. Like a weight pulling her down combined with the knowledge that she’d never be able to claw her way back up.
“These would be the parts of her that rotted last, the bits left over once the rest skittered off on the wind or was drunk deep by the roots.”

The ending might be a little pat, but the journey to get there is so deftly traveled that I honestly don't know that it matters how the story ends.
