Graphic: Domestic abuse, Emotional abuse, Torture, Toxic relationship, and Violence
Moderate: Death
Minor: Sexism
There is an emotionally and physically abusive f\f relationship. If you're triggered by this, I would not read this book, mostly because of the ending, which I'll put in the spoiler tag at the bottom of the page. There is also extremely graphic descriptions of torture and violence. Stuff that made me flinch or skip pages or feel physically ill afterwards, and I'm not usually someone affected by that sort of thing. Anna, the victim, never gets full closure, and is forced to be around her abusers family for, seemingly, the rest of her life. There's also a scene of death by poison described in detail.
