I remember buying it before my exams, well, my exact thoughts were: 
 In shop:" There is no harm buying the book sooner, I pinky promise to myself that I'll read it after exams." 
 On reaching home: "Well, let me just sneak a peek inside. I'll just stare at the cover, nothing else!" 
 After 5 minutes: "Reading the first few pages won't kill me, will it?" 
 And that "first few pages" never ended until I was a girl who stayed awake the whole night turning page after page. Now, you may ask what about the exams? Better not to talk about it. 
 The book was awesome, the story plot was suck-you-right-in-so-you-can't-think-about-anything-else type. Well, I stayed to remain indifferent, Not to fall in love with Jace all over again,I already loved so many of heroes ranging from wizards, to kings,to norm people, to extraterrestrial aliens. But, 
 I Love you Jace, yes, that's what I do! 
 Now, it continued with Clary's mother still in bed, and more demons, more runes, more everything. 
 There were times where I melted over Jace and Clary, times when I resisted the urge to slap them due to their stupidity, and times when I just prayed that everything goes all right. Now, I live in a city full of Shadowhunters. I loved all the characters as much as I could, I loved them even when I didn't have enough love to last me. Loved them with all my heart. 
 What more can I do to convince others to read it? Well, I have many ways, 
 No. 1 
 No.2 
 No. 3 
 Now, it's your wish which one you choose.
