Lakyn's story is ultimately about hope and healing, and does have a happy ending, but there are parts of this book that deserve a warning for anyone who has struggled like him.
All of my books have a short overview of triggers, but this post also includes a chapter-by-chapter list.
If I don't list something that you find while reading, please let me know in the comments and I will add it. Lakyn would want you to take care of yourselves, so know your limits <3
Note: I didn't think consensual sex needed a TW, but people have been surprised that it wasn't mentioned, so this is your official notice that yes, there are sex scenes between two 16yo's in this book.
