The following content warning is found on page 481 of the paperback/hardcover editions of the book and on the author’s website:
This list includes potentially sensitive or upsetting topics and themes present, mentioned, or otherwise alluded to in Sidetracked (covering all four parts), so readers can make an informed decision prior to reading. Specific context is not included here, but be aware that this information may still be considered spoilers.

- Nausea and vomiting
Sidetracked contains NO sexual violence
As the author, I acknowledge that characters in Sidetracked display harmful and problematic behaviors. However, Sidetracked is a work of fiction, and is in no way meant to condone, promote, or glorify such problematic and toxic behaviors. These characters are heavily flawed and were not written to be viewed as role models.
Additional Trigger Warnings
- Attempted murder
- Existential dread
- Gaslighting
- Panic attacks (first-person POV)
- Police negligence
- Stalking
Representation
An asterisk (*) indicates that the author openly identifies with that identity.
