If you think I'm crying like I cried 7 years ago, you're right

Definitely a good ending to the series as a whole, loved the cameos from characters from The Infernal Devices and is a good opening to The Dark Artifices. But it did drag a little bit at the end

Original rating (2014): 4 stars
2019 rating: 5 stars

I'm trying something new, that is, giving a book in the Shadowhunters saga that is not Clockwork Angel, or Clockwork Princess, a 5 star rating.

This book was agonisingly slow, more so than I remembered. But it was still good, amazing even. Maybe it was too good, but it also reminded me why I love the Shadowhunters' world. Right now, that is enough for me to give it 5 stars and continue loving this saga as much as I did back when I first read it.

I give it 3,5 stars.

Listen, it was enjoyable, and there were some good points in this for me, but there were also a lot of decisions made that I wasn't completely on board with, and also too many characters to keep track of everything going on sometimes.

I also feel like this could have been a few pages shorter. (view spoiler)[Did we really need so many different POVs of the scene where Jace loses it and there's a bright explosion of Heavenly Fire in the middle of an otherwise dark and empty demon dimension? I don't know... (hide spoiler)]

Anyway, not too happy with what happens to two of my favorite characters, not really that satisfied with how some ships ended in this, and definitely not happy some people got to have a happy ending when some other characters deserved it more - in my opinion, that is - but I'll get over it and just accept it for what it is.

All in all, it was a journey, for sure.

After what felt like decades of waiting, the bestselling The Mortal Instruments series has come to a close and frankly, it may be one of the best books in Cassandra Clare’s popular series yet. I thoroughly enjoyed the finale and while I am especially sad to say goodbye to this batch of characters, I think the ending was very good and extremely entertaining, romantic and action packed.

I’m having withdrawals already and readers, you know it’s always rather bittersweet when a series you love ends. So I’m willing to bet each of you know this feeling very well, regardless of your view on the series.

Although many have mixed feelings on both these novels (including myself in the past) and the author, I find that as the years go by I’ve grown quite attached to these characters and the world of Shadowhunters. In this world, there is just something awesome about it.

The characters are strong and funny and interesting to read; each of them brings something great upfront to the story and makes you love them or hate them. And their world is our world when we enter it. It's a pleasure to be reading this series.

Cassandra, as usual, provides us with something great to escape to.
