Wow! This book was great, and immediately after I finished the audiobook I sat down to load the next in the series onto my iPod. I can't wait to find out where Clary goes from here. I was NOT expecting that plot twist at the end! Heartbreaking! I hope Clary is able to deal with this new twist in her relationship. 
 I hope Clary trains to be a Shadowhunter in the next book. In this book, she was finding out about her past and roots in the Shadowhunter world, gathering information and discovering the real world through new eyes. But in all the adventures, she was a bit of a liability, unable to fight for herself and untrained. I hope she is able to start using runes and training in weapons soon. That would make her much cooler :) 
 And can I just say... aaahhhhhhhhh. It's SO NICE to finally read about a LIKEABLE MC in a YA book. So refreshing!!!
