I'm not sure how this is possible, but I liked this book even more than the first one! I should say loved this book. 
 This world is addicting, and I am so glad that the fourth book is coming out soon. I have already started reading the 3rd book and I know that I will want the 4th one as soon as I am finished. 
 I think I fall more and more in love with Jace every chapter. I love the insight we have seen into his character through the short scenes in his POV. My only wish is that there were more Jace thoughts. I can't get enough of them. 
 Clary is an awesome protagonist, I see myself relating to her and I really like her spirit. The scene in the fey court was amazing! :) 
 I did not want to put this book down! There were no slow parts and no boring parts, just amazing parts.
