Overall, I loved the story and the characters. It's a beautiful world that Clare created. I really like all the fantasy creatures and the history of her world.
However, two things really put me off a little.
1. Clarys obsession with Jace led her to do the weirdest things in dangerous situations, which didn't really make sense to me.
2. Jace being turned by Valentine into his puppy in less than 24h does not add up with the character he has been on the 400+ pages before. His character is based on the tragic death of his dad and the hate for Valentine. But with one day V. is able to sweet talk Jace into throwing overboard everything he believes? Jace who doesn't trust anyone?! Without proof, just a story that seemingly adds up nicely? Wtf... If Valentine had drugged him or cast a spell on him... Yeah, that sort of put me off...

A very informative book, but the writing style is absolutely awful. It was an odyssey to finish this one.
