Heartbreaking, captivating and an intoxicatingly great read.  Great book.   I mean just a great book.  I loved how it progressed from the beginning to the end.  I loved how it progressed from the beginning to the end.  We got to see a darker side to Clary that gave her more depth which was great.  I absolutely loved that about this book, the fact that the characters were distinguishable in just who they were was amazing done.  But the ending, the ending truly showed the strength that Clary has, what she will do for love.  That was just an amazing ending.  Isabelle especially has a lot of growth in her character, since book one, her character has evolved to a whole ‘nother level.  That is the most amazing book.  Good book, but it does drag sometimes.  On the other hand, each chapter serves a purpose to continue and develop the story.  4/5 ★‘s and an “A-“.
