Tittle: Queen of Air and Darkness
Author: Cassandra Clare
Date Read: 11/7/23 - 11/13/23

Favorite Passages: The trees around the campsite were rustling loudly. The Cohort members who had remained at the treeline, weapons drawn, were glancing around in puzzlement and dawning fear. Jace drew the third in a line of X's on the ground and tossed aside his stick. "Checkmate," he said. "Checkmate is chess," Clary pointed out, entirely ignoring the Cohort surrounding them. Jace grinned. It was a bright, beautiful grin, the sort of grin that made Helen understand why, all those years ago, Aline had kissed him just to see. "I wasn't talking about our game," he said. - Page 704 & 705

What if damnation is the price of true love? Innocent blood has been spilled on the steps of the Council Hall, the sacred stronghold of the Shadowhunters. In the wake of the tragic death of Livia Blackthorn, the Clave teeters on the brink of civil war. One fragment of the Blackthorn family flees to Los Angeles, seeking to discover the source of the disease that is destroying the race of warlocks. Meanwhile, Julian and Emma take desperate measures to put their forbidden love aside and undertake a perilous mission to Faerie to retrieve the Black Volume of the Dead. What they find in the Courts is a secret that may tear the Shadow World asunder and open a dark path into a future they could never have imagined.
Caught in a race against time, Emma and Julian must save the world of Shadowhunters before the deadly power of the parabatai curse destroys them and everyone they love.

I've never felt so much intense emotions for numerous characters in a book until I read this one. I would love to transport myself into the story and just hug each and everyone of the main characters.

It's so heartwarming to watch all these characters you've follow through the series become happy. I am intoxicated by Cassandra Clare's ability to build worlds and characters so vivid that I feel like I am a part of it.
