Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare. 5 out of 5 stars. I own the physical copy of this book, not sure where I bought it. Highly recommend as I have reread this several times.
The characters in this book are very believable and have a great depth to them. They are all very powerful, but their flaws are very obvious. The interactions between the three main characters are realistic and age appropriate.
The plot is done at a decent pace. Meaning, I didn’t feel rushed but I didn’t feel like it was dragging either. The length of the this first book was right in the Goldilock zone.
There is one steamy scene but not spicy. Violence is common and described. Drug addiction and kidnapping are also a central plot point.
I would recommend for ages 14+.
