Gino Alfonso | 186 comments I just started Under the Dome by Stephen King before it airs on ABC on June 24th a little break from my YA books... Next might be Rot and Ruin (Benny Imura, #1) by Jonathan Maberry or Whirligig by Paul Fleischman ...we'll see the King book is over a 1,000 pages so I have a while to decide.

Marie | 56 comments I've just finshed Clockwork Princess (The Infernal Devices, #3) by Cassandra Clare and I don't know what to say. It kile Cassandra Clare broke my heart, then fixed it, then broke it agin and they fixed it again so now all the pieces are back together but there will always be cracks in my heart...

While reading CP, I realized one thing, I don't care at all dor the main plot of The infernal devices. To be honest, there were parts in CP (and even more in CA) that bored me. But I was so interested in the chacarcters that it almost didn't matter to me. I looooove Will and he's always be my favorite character of the series because I've felt a connection to him from the very beginning but I came o really like most of the others characters too, specially Magnus, and to be honest,while reading City of bones, Clockwork Angel and some quotes of him I've read online from the rest of the Mortal instruments series, I didn't understood why so many people loved im but Clockwork Prince made me, how can say this....it made see him for the first time and now I love him and while I love Will and Jem's frienship, I feel that Magnus and Will's frienship is so underated. I also really liked Gabriel, a character that stood out in my opinion because his flaws weren't as nobles as the ones of most other characters. I also really liked Gideon. Ans while there was a few scenes in CP and Clockworkrincess where Jem made me really mad, I grew to really like him and while I didn't always 'felt'' Tessa's connection to im, there were also a few moments where I really liked them together.

And I cried..like a baby, just like I cried in Clockwork prince.I already k ewthe ending but I cried anyway, and I cried in a lot of other chapters. And I dont cry pften when I read a book.

So in the end I would give this book 4.5. In some ways, I liked it ever more that Clockwork prince but the plot just didn't grapped me as much and even more than that, it almost dissapointed me. Also, I never really grew to care for Charlotte wich I think it's a shame because she's such an important character and they're nothing wrong with her. But in the end of the day, the characters and their journey will always stay with me.

And I just started This Is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith .
