Content warnings for this book according to Storygraph and my reading experience! I'm currently only half way through the book, so I don't know the actual intensity of some of these, and some might be wrong or not detailed enough. If any are missing or in the wrong category, please comment and i'll add details. I wanted to do this considering the upcoming summer readalong :)

The content is separated in GRAPHIC, MODERATE, and MINOR, where some have more detail on the content in parentheses. I tried to avoid spoilers as much as possible, but some of the details are spoiler-ish.

UPDATE: I finished the book! I tried my best with the content warning details, but some are still missing or inaccurate, so I would appreciate any help! I'm also not 100% sure for some of the content's category. I'm hesitating between Graphic, Moderate and Minor for some of these so I would love everyone's opinion :)

Dogs are too kind for this world to understand abuse. Salamano needs his a** beat for ten years.

SPECIFICALLY recommendations for office (not just any workplace) romance. Bonus if it is in a legal office. Thanks!
