Welcome to Book Trigger Warnings, a site dedicated to helping readers find books that are safe for them.

Our site is very new and as such, a lot of book triggers have not yet been added. This site was created as a wiki in order to allow everyone in the Book Community to contribute to our efforts. If you are familiar with triggers for a specific book, please add them here! Because this is a community wiki,SOME TRIGGERS WILL BE MISSED. We are not medical/psychological professions and do not claim that our pages are complete. Just because a book "looks safe" for you on our site does not guarantee that it is. Please read our "Disclaimers" page for more information.

To find a book's page, simply search the title or author in the search bar above. If a page has not yet been created, you are encouraged to create one using the following steps below.

Note: To create/edit a page, you need to first create an account. This is to minimize spam and deter people with malicious intent.

Creating a Page

  • Make sure the page you wish to create doesn't already exist. All page titles follow the format of "BookName by Author(s)"
  • If your search comes up empty, the following prompt should appear:
Create the page "BookName by Author(s)" on this wiki!
  • Click on the page name in red and use the automatically loaded template to fill in whatever information you have.
  • If you need help figuring out how to use the text editor when creating or editing a page, please see our Sample Page.
  • To upload a book cover to our wiki, please click on "Upload file" on the left. To avoid copyright infringement, make sure that your photos are of low resolution.
  • When you are done, click on "Save Page".

Helpful Tips

  • Each page should be tagged using categories to label them by age bracket and genre(s).You can find an up-to-date list of all categories here.
  • An up-to-date list of our recognized tropes and their pages can be found [INSERTALINK here]. If you would like to add a trope, please let us know!
  • If you need help editing a page using the text editor, please check out our Sample Page!
