I have gotten back into reading for fun and I love it! I have read a bunch of great books. The issue is, so many books have triggering content in them now adays. It is really triggering to read a book, to get invested in characters, then to read that. Is there a place I can check if the book includes something triggering?

    Why does such a seemingly harmless question always spark such a dumb debate? Would you really recommend that a veteran with severe PTSD read a war novel? Why do you think that would help them deal with their problems on their own? Therapy exists because it’s so hard to deal with your own problems.

    If someone doesn’t want to read fantasy, you can accept that, but if someone doesn’t want to read about certain topics, that’s suddenly a big deal. I really don’t see the difference here.
