A beautiful, BEAUTIFUL ending to this series!!! I laughed, cried, was on the edge of my seat, and every other emotion possible! So many memorable and well-written moments. I’m so sad it’s over, but I will definitely be reading the rest of Clare’s books in the Shadow world!!

I have no words. I sobbed through the end. I aspire to write like Cassandra. The ending is my favorite. I don’t know what else to say. Incredible book—the perfect ending to this perfect series.

Narrated by Grant Cartwright and Eloise Oxer
Unabridged

I felt this was definitely epic in proportions and so much happened but I did feel a lesser connection to what was happening and found myself being not as compelled to pick it up. I think it may have been because I blended read the first few books and appreciated taking the words in as I listened, but just listening this time round (and the 5th book) felt too overwhelming for the amount of plot development that evolved.

That being said, I was still super invested and when events were unfolding in the demon realms my heart felt like it was in my throat.

Simon did the damn thing and I've never felt myself clench in anticipation and worry so much whilst reading something!

The last 20% really took off and despite me not feeling really secured in how everything had got to the point, I was still here for the ride.

A fantastic journey this has been, finally picking up The Mortal Instruments over these last couple months! Onto the next series set in the world of the Shadowhunters, relatively soon, I hope!

It felt like a bit more of an ending than City of Glass. I think it helps to think of the first three books in this series as the trilogy and the second set of three books as a seauel trilogy. I was sad that this was the end of the series and didn't fully realize until halfway through the book. As expected of the final book of a series, lots of loose ends/unfinished stories were tied up. A good ending to the series - finished up the plot points that needed to be wrapped up. I need to see if the characters were this self-aware in the previous book, because with a lot of the dialogue/interactions it really felt like a couple of them had gone through years of therapy between this book and the last. Really had its Spiderman: No Way Home moment. I had far too many moments trying to figure out where each familiar last name and name came from but eventually gave up.
