Oh love triangle, how I loathe you. I wish you would die a fiery death and never return. Your insistence on showing up in just about every YA novel is more than a bit annoying. You're like that unwanted houseguest who never leaves, just sits on the sofa in his underwear, eating Cheetos and wiping his cheesy hands all over everything.
Besides that, the writing was pretty good. ...more

I was very happy to get back to Tessa, Jem, and Will. Clockwork Angel left me wondering why Will had gone to see Magnus Bane and many other questions.

My heart broke multiple times, mostly for Will and sometimes for Tessa too. When things seem to be going well, something happens to change everything, like real life.

I love these characters an ...more

I am absolutely heartbroken and shocked by the last quarter of this book. And the ending! What a cliffhanger. So glad I don't have to wait to dive into the next one. ...more
