I’ll be honest, the points lost are primarily in not seeing the outcome I’d hoped for. The writing is as fast and beautiful as the first book but it’s not a “happy for a happy ending” kind of story where it’s possible to put aside your wants for the story because of your love for the character. I do love these characters but this continuation is so heavily reliant on being plot driven over continuing to endear these characters you already know which means the resolution of the story will effect your experience. I should have recognized my intense love for how the first book ended as a signal to venture no further.
