I didn’t read the Kingdom of the Wicked seres first. (After reading Stephanie Garber’s Caraval prior to OUABH, when I only was interested in Once, I decided to jump right into the series I was most interested in).
Moderate: Sexual content
Minor: Death, Blood, Body horror, Murder, and Gore

This makes the smut feel so mundane it becomes a boring diversion from the actual plot and meaningful interactions between the main characters. If the smut was rarer in the book, it would feel more meaningful and make the story more balanced.
For added shock-value, there is meaningless violence, torture, and other possibly triggering events to cause diversion for the MCs from the main game in the plot. This dampened my enjoyment of the book.
If you are looking for a book with a nice premise for plot, interesting characters, but main focus on smut, you'll find a great match here.
