It was well written. It was meant to be psychological and twisted, and it was, but she also did a great job with the pacing, making sure characters were expressed the way she intended, etc. I've read plenty of "normal" stories that even without all the fucked up aspects weren't as interesting or emotional.

It's a psychological romance, definitely out of the norm, but it was actually extremely well written and the art was beautiful. The author said herself that she focused on empathy and wanted the audience to become attached and accept them in this fictional world and I think she did an amazing job. Yes it has certain dark fictional kinks but I feel like that pushed away a lot of people before giving it a chance and only attracted immature fetishizers. That's a shame because it genuinely deserves much more love.
