I had a lot of feels about this book. Firstly, I needed to get Malec back, but I needed them to talk about it because they weren't in a good place and I'm so.happy. with how Clare did it. Also, I was really pleased and happy when Clary actually talked to Jace and that all the rapey shit with Sebastian was all not just for shock and disgust, we actually learned about how victims feel and how to slowly recover from it, which I was very happy about. After getting some ways through this and realizing that this Emma Carstairs was in fact the main character of Lady Midnight, you wouldn't believe how fast I requested it from the library. Much anticipation for it. ALSO. What gave me breath and life and happiness was (view spoiler)[ all the fuel for my Infernal Devices adoring heart. I mean. Lets be real. If I had know how much Jem was going to be a part of this book I wouldn't have waited so long to finish this series (possibly a bad thing? But also, can you blame me.) The whole deal with Church had me cry-laughing, and Tessa being a part of it (FINALLY) made me so happy. Side note, I'm constantly paranoid of Jace being possessed after Fallen Angels, and so when they Edom and until he tells us what he saw in his vision, I was convinced Sebastian was using him. ALSO WHO THE HECK BRINGS A CONDOM TO A DEMON REALM JACE. But also, practice safe sex kids. (hide spoiler)] So now. Onto the thing I didn't like. (view spoiler)[ The ending with Simon. Maybe I'm too used to Game of Thrones, but I was sad about him forgetting them all, I did my grieving, and then I rolled my eyes and lost faith in the seriousness of the consequences in this series. Because, seriously. This major demon somehow didn't have the power to fully wipe his memory? So much so that he basically remembers everything I do from the past 6 books? It's a joke, and it while yes, it made me happy about their lives and there was a happy hopeful ending, but it wasn't necessary and quite frankly was a bore. It makes me doubt all other bad things that happen, because it's now predictable that everything/one will end up okay in the end, and that's not fun at all. (hide spoiler)] But all in all, I liked it a lot, and I loved the new characters. Cannot wait to revisit the old, and learn more about and explore with Emma and Julian! 
 Controversial (maybe) note: Cassandra Clare needs to work harder at her girl-power. One thing I realized while reading these books, which is entirely ridiculous and completely unforgivable given how many strong female characters there are, is that these books could barely pass the Bechdel test. Think about it and get back to me. There was little to none female friendships, and all interactions between two females was either totally in the background, OR ABOUT MEN. With such a huge cast of characters, you would think it isn't so, but I really think that this is something Clare needs to really work on if she wants to deserve a feminist gold star. Also? The treatment of characters of color. Things to think about!
