I felt like this book was way longer than it needed to be, but I'm so so so SO glad this is finally over. I've said before that I found the extension to the original trilogy unnecessary. As the series went on, I found myself disliking Clary and Jace more and more and no longer caring what happened to them—the side characters were really what saved it for me. Simon and Magnus and BROTHER ZACHARIAH OH MAN ALL OF THE FEELS. He definitely was what kept me reading instead of dropping the book. All the references to TID killed me. SO MANY TEARS.

Overall, it was a pretty decent conclusion and ended as you can imagine a Cassandra Clare series to end. What upsets me is I'll probably end up reading Lady Midnight when it comes out because I do like Emma, but I don't want to commit to another series like that. I really want to be done with the Shadowhunter world so I'm going to my hardest to stay the hell away from TDA. Can Cassandra Clare would just move on to something else please?
