Even though it does not count as a downside for me, it's important to mention that the book contains content that may be triggering or distressing for some readers. It includes mentions of alleged pedophilia, although there are no descriptions whatsoever. These references are part of the plot and serve as elements of conflict and tension. Reader discretion is advised, particularly for individuals who may be sensitive to or have personal experiences related to this subject matter. Profanity is used by certain characters in dialogue and is included to reflect their personalities and emotions realistically. While not excessive, the presence of profanity may be deemed offensive or unsuitable for readers who prefer a more conservative or sanitized reading experience.
