Graphic: Dysphoria, War, Death, Death of parent, Suicidal thoughts, Violence, Grief, Misogyny, Blood, Gore, Injury/Injury detail, Medical trauma, Ableism, Gun violence, and Kidnapping
Moderate: Deadnaming
Minor: Transphobia
While this book is about a trans heroine, the only time the heroine is deadnamed/misgendered Is when someone who knew her previously recognizes her. Once this person is told how to address her name/pronouns, they do so. The heroine is never outed, either.
