The Last Stand of the New York Institute

Tessa Gray best character, i love her so much 🤍 It was so beautiful seeing her link every story and show this endless kindness of her to Jocelyn. And also, I live for every Will and Jem mention. I miss the three of them together. The end of the Whitelaws was truly heartbreaking too, and I already didn’t like them, but this made me kind of hate Robert and Maryse 💔

THIS is what I needed. Valentine. I needed to see the followers as they were before they were caught. I needed to see how Jocelyn came to the conclusion of taking away the things from Clary she did and how Magnus agreed to her terms. THIS was worth all the other books that I read in this series that I just kind of shrugged about. I’m not really a novella-book type of person. I like my big, thick, deep books. But I needed to read this and see Valentine in the works.

Molto, molto interessante *w* Mi ha fatto un pò strano vedere il padre di Jace, però è stato davvero molto interessante vedere in azione il circolo :). Sappiamo davvero poco di questo periodo, quindi spero che magari in un futuro la Clare ci illumini ancora di più! Sarebbe interessante sapere cosa ha realmente spinto Valentine a creare tutto questo casino u.u. Il finale è dolcissimo *-*
