Actually a pretty enjoyable read! It was a bit longer than what I usually read and the plot twist was “interesting.” Even though it was a long book, the world building was really well done. An excellent fantasy choice! Clary is kinda dumb and the book leaves a cliffhanger because it’s a series, but that’s really my only critiques.

I remeber reading this book when I was lot younger. And I did it o ly after seeing the movie. I really enjoyed the book back then. 
Now listening to it.. some parts were very childish, some parts still grabed my attention. 

Unfortunately, i've seen the series as well, and I cannot create a vision for how the characters look or the surroundings. 

But here i am going to the second book.
