Minor: Animal cruelty and Animal death
For those coming here being concerned about Linus' pet cat: She is fine and thriving. There are however very short mentions of past incidents that led to 'dead fish' or non-serious talk about 'liking dead things'. As someone who hardly tolerates animal cruelty and death in books and films, I didn't feel the need to actually mention this trigger warning. However, having the Antichrist and a pet cat on the loose, I was concerned finding that others have set warnings for animal deaths wishing someone would have written that for my benefit.meeklovestoread's review against another edition

This book does tackle themes of discrimination and prejudice. And how rhetoric like that can shape the individuals as well as the society affected by it.fanboyriot's review against another edition

A real life plane crash is discussed in one scene. There are a few uncomfortable jokes made about child characters.Not sure how to tag it, but the fact that the fantasy oppression narrative was partially inspired by the Sixties Scoop is very much something to be aware of.
