This shadowhunter world that Cassandra Clare has created is a wonderful and unique story that I have not read before. It is not your average dystopian society. It is a dystopian society that mundanes do not know of. Every creature is apart of the conflict though. Angels, demons, werewolfs, faeries, vampires, shadowhunters and the list goes. Don't you dare tell me this is another twilight story because You will be sorry. This is actually a story that involves a wonderful plotline and there is no stupid love triangle. And also, don't tell me Simon-Clary-Jace is a triangle because 1) Everone has to predict who she will eventually end up with and 2) I love simon but if anyone ships him and clary as more than besties then you are what Jace says, a stupid mundane.

Well written book and it did manage to make me laugh quite a lot. I didn't really connect with the world/characters though and I thought that the sibling reveal in the end ruined the mood.

Last book of 2023!

The cover says "Prepare to be hooked" yup that pretty much sums it up. Couldn't put it down read it in 2 days I'm totally going to watch the movie now and will be watching the "Shadowhunters" on Netflix.
