Story 1 and 2 are the more lighthearted ones. 3 involves the most brutal and potentially triggering elements and it's mostly shocking because after the previous ones it was unexpected. 4 only has a few things that involve content warnings but much less in detail. Number 5 isn't exactly a really dark telling but still not something I'd call lighthearted.jbabbm's review against another edition

This is also a great book to read if you have previously read the Grishaverse and feel nostalgic but aren't ready to dive back in just yet.
