This book is surprisingly deep with it's commentary on women's worth in society. It also depicts healthy polyamory in a way I've literally never seen and I love it.
When talking about dark topics, it has a way of doing so that gets the point across without being triggering.

Graphic: Sexism, Alcoholism, Torture, and Child abuse
Moderate: Domestic abuse and Sexual assault
All triggers are handled delicately. The beginning of the book explains them in more detail.
