I'm done reading this book!
It took me 1 and a half months and 6 other books, but I finally did it!

I didn't like this book as much as I thought I would. The plot and characters are great but it's too similar to TMI, The book is way too slow for my liking which made reading the book tiring.
That aside the story is amazing, i also love the 1800 setting in London. I love the characters my favourite is Jem and Tessa. ...more

Not as good as Mortal Instruments.
Kind of predictable. Maybe I'd like it more if I had read it before I read TMI. ...more

The hype around this book and the fact that it was set during a Victorian era is what made me read it. I have to admit, I liked it mostly. I liked the story, the myth and the characters. However, the book gets slow in some parts but it at some others it picks up nicely.
I appreciated Clare's style of writing. Also how she wrote the relationship between Will and Tessa (view spoiler) but that will only make me read the next book ASAP. ...more
