I still really loved this the second time round but I lowered my rating slightly just because I felt the start was a bit slow up until Mark appeared!

What can I even say about this book? Although I didn't give it 5 stars, it's definitely one of my favourite reads of the year. This book is the reason that I spent the last few months reading 10 Cassandra Clare novels and I'm so glad that I did.

Another incredible novel from the Shadowhunter world ! It was incredible to submerge myself in the world again, any worries I had about not connecting to new characters pretty much disappeared within the first two pages.
I think a part of me is still amazed that the book is out and I've already read it. I pretty much squealed whenever any of the familiar characters were mentioned. Although the book was incredibly long (especially for a first book, which I have to admit is slightly worrying since ...more

First off I want to say how sick of forbidden love I am. Just once in a Cassandra Clare book I want there to be a simple relationship between two people. Not three, not seven. Just two.

Honestly, anyone who rips on Cassandra Clare for writing several more shadowhunter trilogies/series would probably jump for joy if J.K rowling decided to do a whole new set of books set in the world of Harry Potter. Cassie can write what she wants and she has a world that is very intricate. If I had written this series, I'd love to have a deal for other trilogies where I could introduce new characters and situations :)
