The R slur is used in casual passing on pg 131 (hardback edition). Most other tags relate to the enforcement and punishments with regard to the illegal letters. Being epistolary, there is a casualness and distance from the actual events described.lynxpardinus's review against another edition

Suicide warning is more to be safe - either way, the death in question is a result of self-harm.Further warning for uses of the G slur and the R slur, once each. There is also a romantic subplot between a 19 year old and a ~24-26 year old that I found uncomfortable.
