Content Warnings
Potentially Triggering Content
As much of my work contains dark and mature themes, it's important to include a comprehensive list of potentially triggering content for those readers who want to know what to expect. If you're the type of reader who prefers to "go in blind", you may wish to skip this page! Characters in my work typically deal with different types of trauma, often inadequately treated or addressed, which might be an overarching theme that some readers could find troubling.
​
The content warning for each book is listed below. If you have any questions at all or would like more detail about a particular book, or something you think should be added, please reach out to me at brynneweaverbooks@gmail.com
