Sure that existed in Nevernight, but it wasn't the only thing in Nevernight. I enjoyed the world-building and the themes more. But in this one, at least in my mind, it lost a lot of it's narrative purpose. It multiplied the problems of the first.
Kristoff doesn't write the queer couple like an actual couple, but a fetish. Nevernight had this problem too. In a brief scene where Mia kisses Ashlynn. Her love-interest responds with anger and. . . . nah just kidding. He talks about how hot it is because remember women loving women relationships only exist to please men. A woman can't be a threat to a hetero relationship. But this was pretty brief. His problem with writing women loving women relationships is so much worse in this one because he decided to bring it to the forefront. Mia doesn't even question if she's bi until MONTHS LITERAL MONTHS after she had a threesome with a woman. Like what?
Look the world really doesn't need any more terrible queer representation. If you can't write a queer character than just don't.
There were other problems. Character Development is not there.
I liked the writing-style and the tone but this one really crashed and burned.
