if i was rating purely off vibes this would be 5 stars because everyone knows im a slut for malec, the same 14 y/o girl that got up at 1am every tuesday night to livestream shadowhunters before school so she wouldnt get spoilers is the same 21 y/o girl who cherishes these characters so very much for the guidance they gave her in her teenage years. it might sound silly to some but so much of my sexuality journey came during shadowhunters airing and i think without alec id have really struggled to accept it. and so coming back to this couple at this age is a treasure and im so happy i have another one to read <3

personal enjoyment rating: exceptional ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
the plot twist was a bit obvious, but I still appreciated this story so much.
it was structured a bit differently than other shadowhunters novels which was a nice refreshing touch: it's a queer traveling adventure about trying to solve a mystery that also ties in the stuff already known about the universe and sets up its own story arc focused around Magnus' legacy
I enjoyed this book a lot :)
