I listen to an audio version of this book so I can’t say anything about how it was written visually but from listening to the book the tension is well written, it also does a great job of portraying the main character’s emotions and motivations. It’s easy to understand the “why” in what the main character does. The book is well written, if a bit over written in some parts but I enjoy flowery writing. Outside of that scenes that were supposed to be uncomfortable were, I had to stop at a few points of the book and pick it up again later after I’d emotionally prepared myself.
