You check the trigger warnings to filter out the book. I check the trigger warnings to pick the book.

They put trigger warnings on books now?

Many do now, both independent publishing (which normalized including them) and traditional publishing. You can always skip them if you don’t need them, but for people with significant trauma, it’s nice to have forewarning.

Like in the book itself? I feel like I’ve seen trigger warnings in descriptions on bookselling websites, but never in a book itself.

Yep! Some folks do it in a preface. Some have a link to them. Some put them in the back of the book.
