Oh no, I never finish the Mortal Instruments book One, why would I believe I could finish the Infernal Devices - Clockwork Angel? Somehow in me I have this tiny ray of hope that Ms Clare's writing has improved throughout the year and I sincerely hope she has a check through Goodreads community review section and read comments that criticize her work. No, I bet she didn't look, or sh might have seen it and "oh please, i only read the 5 stars review to see how devoted people are of my work". But anyway, this is not ascertain statement because I don't know what Mrs Clare do in her own time, so I just talk about the book. 
 Like many reviews have complained, Tessa is just another version of Clare. Will/Jace and Jem/Simon. There are dark, disgusting creatures again and yadada, these awesome teenagers trying to save the world. 
 I quit after like 50 pages or something, the pace is horrible. It is so tediously riding and it just frustrates me as well. 
 I love Victorian era but these characters in here sounded nothing like Victorian People. Mrs Clare kept inserting "Thames River" and stuff like that to ensure the reader that yeah, these people are from Victorian Era. I mean, come on, your readers are not that dumb! Just by looking at the way they talk, I feel it was so modern and weird. 
 The Infernal Devices are not worth reading. Mostly, her work is just fan-fiction like about a teenage girl who desperately wants love and attention. I give it two stars because I must admit that some lines are pretty funny. 
 Respectfully, I concede that the mortal instruments and infernal devices are quite popular due to their humorous dialogue and different characters, despite their one-dimensional characteristics with no absolute development. This exceed expectation for a YA novel. Garrr, can this world just please get rid of these bunch silly soapy romance!
