I loved these books, progressively, less and less as the series went on. And if I'm telling the 100% honesty here, I didn't even finish this. I can only handle so much of the same; clary and jace are wanting to fuck each other, angst, and Sebastian won't die. 
 These used to be, arguably, my favorite books and now I can't seem to figure out why. The writing is boring, predictable, and 800 pages of unnecessary drama that I still think could have been wrapped up neatly at the end of city of glass. 
 I'm dissatisfied and disappointed because I always wanted to see these books out to the end and see where it went. Frankly, however, I was incredibly bored.
