The book was slow at parts but I felt like it complimented the intense fast paced parts very well. I didn’t feel bored during the slow parts which was good. My biggest complaint was the parts that were a story within a story. Like the main character is an author and there are chapters which just consisted of a book he was writing and they didn’t add much to the plot of the actual book. The horror scenes were very well written and made me forget I was reading
