Graphic: Ableism, Adult/minor relationship, Murder, Blood, Death, and Transphobia
Moderate: Homophobia, Grief, Gun violence, Medical content, Racism, Bullying, Classism, Colonisation, Death of parent, Dysphoria, Sexual content, Sexual harassment, and Stalking
Minor: Sexual violence, Slavery, Animal death, and Cultural appropriation
The first story, Seven Nights For Dying, involves what I can only read as grooming, although it is not framed this way.More than one story has the issue many vampire YA stories have with a love interest being chronologically much older.
The cultural appropriation warning is for how the final story, First Kill, briefly namedrops a certain entity from Algonquian folklore that must not be referred to by name.

- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
