There are a LOT of dark moments through all three plot lines. Many of them stem from domestic abuse. Truly it is hard to avoid if that is something that may be triggering for you.kfanucchi's review against another edition

The extremely graphic triggering part of the book doesn’t come in till like a third of the way through.
I liked the switching perspectives especially in the beginning. The chapters were short and there was a nice pace to the book. Toward the middle and end the chapters were long we and started to feel slow. The book was a bit predictable toward the end.
I did like the author’s writing style (although sometimes the dialogue got a bit cheesy) and would consider reading her future works.

It really is a feminist epic. And it made me want to be less scared of insects, although i haven't gotten very far with that yet.
You should be aware of the potentially triggering themes in this book though. R*pe, domestic violence, miscarriage and termination of pregnancy are strong plot points.
