A large part of this is just paedophile porn. There's no need for the inappropriate relationship to be gone into with so much detail. 
The mother's side of the story would have been enough although it has some unpleasant, outdated and homophobic opinions expressed. The daughters story is actively disgusting and romanticised paedophilia.

I think don’t judge a book by its cover might be a good description here.  Although the cover is extremely beautiful and the title and back seem intriguing for something lovable to come, the story told by all of these pages is just slow and honestly, not that great. 
It was also a bit of an uncomfortable read as well.
