Cassandra Clare just knows how to mess with my heart and make me sobbing and laughing at the same time. I was a mess the last thirdish of this book, and I will be having a massive bookhangover from this, I just know it! However I liked the second one a little better than this, but this is still very well written and I was definitely captivated by it. It was a satisfying conclusion, but I think I would have loved the book even more, if there wasn't an epilogue. I get why there was an epilogue and that the characters within it deserved what happened in the epilogue. I guess I just like being in pain and sobbing about an unhappy ending for the rest of eternity rather than having the puzzle fit nicely together, if you know what I mean! 
 Anyways I think I HAVE to pick up the mortal instruments soon, as I have not read them!
