A note for parents

Broken Things is a young adult mystery centered on the death of a girl and the two friends accused of killing her. The book explores themes of grief, trauma, and friendship but contains mature content including discussions of death, mental health struggles, and a teen's past abuse. While ultimately about reconciliation and truth-seeking, the dark subject matter and psychological complexity make it most appropriate for mature teens.
