I realize that some readers like to know what they’re getting into when they dive into a book, and I wanted to give a heads-up about some of the more intense elements of my books, since most of them have intense elements.
I have attempted to create an exhaustive list of potentially upsetting elements from each of my series and stories, however, I may have missed some that I didn’t even think of, and for that, I sincerely apologize. I want everyone who reads my books to enjoy them, so feel free to contact me at susantrombleyauthor@gmail.com to let me know if there’s something I failed to add that might help future readers make an informed decision about whether they want to dive into a book or not.
I first note elements that occur throughout the series and would be repetitive to add to each book, then list any additional warnings for specific books below that. I try to remain as general as possible to avoid unnecessary spoilers. I hope this list is helpful to my readers and prepares you for the reading experience ahead. 😀
Please note that some of these warnings are potential spoilers!
