I loved this series, too, Kasey. The last book is pretty good, too. I think you'll like it.


OOOHHH I can't wait for you to read Unravel Me. I was so torn at the end!!! The ending was SO good!

So I'm starting


A friend of mine helped set up a fundraiser for the victims of the Boston bombing here in the US, if anyone wants to check it out. It's for a great cause, and there are 10 great bundles of signed books donated by some of our favorite authors up for grabs:

LOL Yeah, I wasn't really sold until Unravel Me, even though I did start to feel something for him after DM. He's just hot as hell in UM!!!

Yeah, I wanted to grab her and go "DUH!!" at the end of the first book! Glad you finished it, and I can't wait to see what you think of book 2! Just be prepared for the emotional roller coaster!

Yeah, I mean I'm at the point where I feel like we're being jerked around over all of her books. I saw that about BN and I just rolled my eyes and decided not to dwell on it! LOL

I'm so far behind on Abbi's books now I don't even know the characters, it's so sad!! So is this an extension from her other series? I can't believe I have to ask this, Abbi is one of my all-time favorites. *hides head in shame*

Oh good! Cuz e there was a part of me going "but but but she's a ghost and he's not...wahhhhhhh"

I'm so bummed by this I own all of Abbi Glines books but I hadn't read the Too Far series yet mostly because I've had tons of other stuff to read! But I hate to hear that he's not the same because that is one thing I loved about her was that the characters were all different so I loved reading their story. :(

Well that sucks, and you know I felt like she did that with Sawyer a bit, too. I ended up loving him in the end, but he was such a jerk after being such a sweetie in Vincent Boys. Thank you for clarifying all of this, I seriously need to just have an Abbi weekend!! LOL

I definitely love her work, but it did piss me off the way we were thrown all of these release dates that never were! It's so strange, and I try not to judge b/c we don't know what's going on in her life, but if I were her I'd have just scrapped all of the dates and said "releasing in 2013" or 2014. Then we wouldn't be hanging on these hopes for certain months!!

Oh no!!!!!!!!!!! Don't say that. Not til you finish. KEEP READING! Even though my heart is still sore and broke from this book, IT'S EPIC! Don't stop!


Yup. Jem fan (-_-)


Yeah...okay, I seriously don't know...but I can be sore and broke just in time for school I guess :/ But yeah, i'll keep reading.


As a Jem fan (meaning you, not me)....you will LOVE the end. Don't stop! I mean, I love Jem and all but I was not as satisfied as if I'd been a full Jem fan. I'm a Will fan through and through! But I still enjoyed it. It's Clare after all. I'll never not love her books!


Okay, okay. Thanks, I needed that push :) Something really good has to happen to make me happy again.


No problem! I still haven't been able to move on from that book. I'm just so damn sad it's over. So. Damn. Sad. I miss Will sooooooo much! :(


I'll miss all of them :/ Can't wait for TDA


Don't forget about CoHF! I need that book now, after CP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Boo!!! I hate waiting a f**king year for books! I need to re-read TMI.
I love Gabriel and Gideon in CP as well. They rocked! And of course Magnus was freaking FABULOUS! I love him so much more in TID than TMI.


I know!! Ah, the wait! Although, I guess we have the Bane chronicles to pass the time :) And the graphic novels (I still haven't read those ones)


AND the movie!!!!!!! EEEEEEEP! I read What Really Happened in Peru. I love Magnus! He's so funny! Yes, I need to get the graphic novels too!

Like Annie has said you need to push through :D I too am an obsessed WILL fan and I love Jem and I too can't get over the book!! My brain has accepted it but my heart is still hanging in there lol you'll understand when you read the rest !!

Awwww! I need to wait for dad to get me some more money so I can buy it! My favorite character has always been Magnus!! Love him so much :)


Okay :) I've got a quarter of the book left and...let me quote Tessa for a second:
"You know that feeling, when you are reading a book, and you know that it is going to be a tragedy; you can feel the cold and darkness coming, see the net drawing tight around the characters who live and breathe on the pages. But you are tied to the story as if being dragged behind a carriage and you cannot let go or turn the course aside." <---- my feelings in a nutshell at the moment :)

I typically love her books. Mainly because they are quick entertaining read. That's exactly as I saw Woods too. And Marcus is my favorite male character of hers (well tied with Sawyer). It just sucks that she changed a character that already had certain personality. I bought it already, but may wait to read it until the next one so the cliffhanger doesn't piss me off


Definitely keep reading! You'll be happy and sad all at the same time. It's so worth every second!!

I completely understand how you are feeling...we all felt the same way hun. It really is one of those series' that you will forever be invested in and it's shattering to have that feeling knowing that one, the series is ending and two, you don't know how you are going to take it when you read the last word...sigh!! I kind of love that feeling in a way, if that makes any sense...the mark of a brilliant storyteller.

*groan* I dislike books like that a lot :/ I want it very clearly stated in my books whether it is going to be happy or sad, not both! oh, well, the worst thing has happened already, and I read a spoiler, so I know what's going to happen to the other one *sigh* but I have less than a quarter to finish, i'm not going to just stop there. Hey, is The Iron King a good book to read after this one?


....not one for being sad. :/




I have the whole series and it's a BOTM for a different group. I'll keep that in mind, thanks. I might read "What really happened in Peru" Although after this apparent ending i'm not sure I could read something from Cassandra Clare for while...I might just read something cute and short after Clockwork Princess, I don't know.

This might help. http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/...

Thanks :) I don't mean to crowd this thread with my disappointment, I just think maybe if others say it gets better, I might believe them, lol :) I have quite a few standalones I've been meaning to get to, so I think I might :)

Well, I personally loved CP2. Best book by Clare so far. But everyone is different.

I love Jem and Henry too much to like it at the moment. :/ But i don't know. If something really spectacular happens, i might be okay again.

When you finish it, let me know how you feel. :) I am super curious.

Okay...But so far it's not looking good :)

Well, I dont want to spoil you further, but I read your little rant in your review. :P And I think there is still hope for you.

I agree.

Okay. <--- I don't want to start another rant so i'm just going to leave my response as that.
