It is honestly what you expect it to be. I would advise you to not start the book expecting top-tier content, but be prepared to be surprised. The writing is actually quite good and while some parts are defiantly a bit corny, I can say I quite enjoyed the book.
Please be aware that there are very dark, adult themes. While the premise of the book is the usual Alien/Human trope -- Readers should be aware that there are themes of Sexual assault, Torture, Emotional & Physical Abuse among other things. Please look at Content Warnings before reading.
