Gaia cannot feel fear and searches for an explanation while trying to live as a teenager and understand herself.
Gaia’s family history includes deception, sexual assault, abandonment and a dangerous relative attempting to control or recruit her.
Gaia forms friendships and romantic relationships while people close to her are endangered, harmed or lost.
Approach with care if kidnapping, murder, sexual assault, abusive homes, bereavement, serious injury, medical experimentation or eating-disorder-related material may be particularly difficult.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the current material supports only a cautious reading; another book-specific source is still needed.
