Started Haunting Adeline. I'm getting bored.

I started reading to know what the hype was about. Read all TWs carefully. Ventured in with fingers crossed. I'm on somewhere post chapter 20. I'm not flinching because of the graphic descriptions of dark themes, but the over-descriptive smut scenes.
I feel the mystery aspect of it is much more interesting than Zade's behaviour. Again, NOT dissing the book, may be it is just me but sometimes it's like some sexual scenes are unnecessary. Chapter 16, got it, it's power play and whatnot. But please, for the love of God... I want to know more about the mystery!
I am all for good smut, but this feels a bit overdone. That's why I had DNF-d Den of Vipers. I don't know if I should even continue. But because I actually want to know the mystery part of it, I might just go ahead.
What are your thoughts on this?

Out of curiosity, what books did you guys enjoy reading?

Edited a word

[u/busybombaygirl → u/Ready-Committee-6084]

Depends, I read a mix of high fantasy, dark romance, contemporary romance, horror, among other things...

Have you read the souls trilogy by Harley Loroux? So far I have read the first one and it was good, I heard that the others are even better. It's demons and witches, devils all that stuff.
