Gibson: mention of sexual assault, murder, blood-drinking Lure of the Abyss by Jenna MacDonald: some people get eaten by a sea monster Hearteater by Eliza Temple: none Quicksilver Prometheus by Katie Young: hallucinations, mention of death of children Homesick by Sam Hirst: none Rodeo by Ryann Fletcher: homophobia, domestic violence, murder Lady of Letters; or, the Twenty-First Century Homunculus by Heather Valentine: cheating Taylor Hall by Jen Glifort: panphobia (challenged) The Ruin by E.
