I like the story so far even if I have an odd feeling of something essential missing while reading it but that has something to do about the less Jace, Clary, Alec, Magnus and Izzy time. 
 I mean I was hoping to read about the others too, even if I knew that it won't be about them. But hey, a girl can dream. So I like reading about Simon and his progress to become a Shadowhunter but I really miss the others a lot that is why I have to give it 4 instead of 5 stars.
