Jace ruined this for me. He is a complete brat to Clary. I don't care how much "pain" you're in or how much you want to "punish yourself," you don't say things like that to someone you love. I'm getting sick of his habit of keeping everything bottled up, making decisions on his own that Clary should be involved in, pushing everyone away, and lashing out. He is immature and certainly doesn't deserve Clary. ( )

Loved it. probably my favorite book so far in the series!! ( )

Man, this one had so many plot twists. There was so much that I had forgotten about! Can't wait to continue.





This was the best one yet. I still can't process a complete thought. Wow. ( )

To save her mother, Clary travels to the City of Glass, the traditional home of Shadowhunters. But Valentine’s not done screwing with her life in his bid to control the world. I’m actually writing this review from the vantage point of mid-way through book 5, but this series is frustrating. I’m enjoying it -- a lot -- and the tension is high -- but it feels like the actual plot is subsumed by the romance sub-plot more often than not. And I mean, I’ve barely done *anything* but read this series since starting it last week. I don’t think I’m going to write separate reviews. But seriously -- Clary and Jace need to be cut a break at SOME point. Gah. ( )

I just wanted to know what happened. Now I know. ( )
