From Brynne Weaver's website:This is the book with the craziest list, (of trigger warnings) so hold on tight *cracks knuckles*. Yes, this really is the list. Yes, it all does happen.

Eyeballs and eye sockets
Amateur surgery
Skin ornaments
Chainsaws, axes, knives, scalpels - a lot of sharp objects
Accidental cannibalism
Not-so-accidental cannibalism
Questionable use of a mummified corpse
Lobotomized man servant
Ill-advised use of kitchen implements
I’m sorry about the cookies and cream ice cream (I’m not really)
Detailed sex scenes which include (but are not limited to) cock warming, rough sex, praise kink, anal, adult toys, choking, spitting, dom/sub interactions, genital piercings
References to parental neglect and child abuse
Parental loss (not depicted - one parent murdered, one parent passed in child birth)
References to child sexual assault (not in detail)
It’s a book about serial killers, so there’s some generally messed-up murder and chaos
