Minor: Infidelity
The main character of this book has OCD. Many of her compulsions are described in detail, in a way that could be upsetting for someone with this disorder or a similar one. There are also graphic scenes of physical abuse and sexual assault. Not excessively long or detailed. There are only a few brief scenes of violence, but they can be fairly graphic at times.missknown's review against another edition

5.0
Graphic: Blood, Domestic abuse, Gore, Rape, Panic attacks/disorders, Violence, Toxic relationship, Emotional abuse, and Murder
Moderate: Toxic friendship and Abortion
Minor: Forced institutionalization, Suicidal thoughts, and Alcohol
The story depicts an abusive relationship without shying away from detailing scenes of abuse and violence explicitly. Also, the emotions and thoughts in the victim's mind are the main focus, so they can be raw and brutal.
