Light spoilers ahead
In chapter 11, if you get the hardcover copy of the book, there’s a picture of a shadowy cat to warn you that this chapter has the main character’s cat’s death. In that edition, the death of the cat is described on the bottom of page 225-226. There will be mentions of a grand oak tree. Skip until a character says “No sorcery today, aye?” I think that avoids the worst of it.

The main character considers hanging herself. The text makes it seem like she will follow through with it, but she actually decides to use the rope to yoke her mule.
