A commercial dark romance in translation, aimed at a broad readership, it most likely uses plain contemporary vocabulary. It sits near Beach Read and It Ends with Us in accessibility.
Sentence structure: 26 out of 100
Popular romance of about 27,500 words favours short, direct sentences. Its syntax is closer to Beach Read than to anything demanding.
Abstraction: 27 out of 100

Information density: 24 out of 100
At 27,500 words it is a short, plot-driven read in a series. It carries few threads, comparable to the light density of Beach Read.
Narrative indirection: 22 out of 100
Genre romance tells its story and its feelings directly. Like Beach Read, what you see is what you get.
Symbolic density: 20 out of 100
The hero's fixation on the number three is a character trait more than a symbolic system. Beyond it the book offers little symbolic layering, like Beach Read.
Ironic distance: 22 out of 100
The book is billed as an obsessive enemies-to-lovers romance and invites emotional engagement. It calls for the direct reading that It Ends with Us does.
Resolution withholding: 38 out of 100
As the second part of a trilogy it likely leaves threads open for the next volume. Romance conventions still favour emotional payoff, so closure is moderate and well below literary ambiguity.
Structural complexity: 22 out of 100
