As a side note, I would recomend this book even for people who are sensitive to some trigger warnings, because in my opinion, the story mentions or shows dark things, but is never gruesome and chooses an appropriate level of detail.

PS, Stu-Turt, if you’re reading this: I’m sorry. I’m one of those readers who can’t stop thinking about how dreamy Arent is. Last night I fell asleep imagining his big arms and wide chest. If you didn’t want us to fall in love, I’m sorry to say that’s the only place where your writing has failed.
Graphic: Sexual violence and Ableism
Moderate: Confinement, Misogyny, War, and Violence
A female character experiences sexual violence and makes reference to being physically abused. A primary character with dwarfism is referred to with ableist language and describes having experienced ableism. The book is set during a voyage from a Dutch colony in Indonesia. Frequent references are made to a genocide carried out by Dutch military against indigenous people.darthdevyn's review
