Reviews with content warning for Grief - მექანიკური ანგელოზი

I loved this book so much. It was mysterious, full of action and it was very suspense. The world of the shadow hunters and downworlders was very well thiught through with lots of different powers and characters from both the angel and demon side.
Tessa was a brave and courageous character, who had a very unique power where she could Change. I am really curious to find out what Tessa actually is and the rest of her powers. Her brother, Nate, unexpectedly betrayed Tessa, by conspiring with Mortmain. At this point I felt bad for Tessa as she still loved Nate even though he doesn’t anymore.
Will was an interesting character, with major mood swings. The best chapter with Will was when he fought with De Quincey. This is because it was intense and done so well I felt like I was actually there watching the fight. I really want to find out what happened to his parents and what he was talking about to Magnus Bane in the epilogue.
Jen was a sweet character who I thought we didn’t see enough of. I really hope in the next book he is in it more, so I get to find out more about Jen. I also feel really bad for him and his illness considering there is no cure and he is suffering badly.
Overall, I thought this was a great book and I highly recommend for any YA Fantasy readers.

I started this book a LOOOOONG time ago, but I never really did, cause it starts out kinda slow. As much as I love the Mortal Instruments series, I only read the first couple chapters of Clockwork Angel & then let myself get sidetracked with different books. So it laid in my DNF pile for a while. I finally got back to it, and this time fully let myself sit with the book, and I loved it!! The characters are so sweet and enjoyable, Tessa is just the sweetest girl who’s life gets turned upside down, Will is badass and sweet (though he doesn’t want anyone to know) despite keeping everyone at arms length, and Jem is such a beautiful soul and such a sweetheart. And though you spend the whole book searching for the villain, the Magister, I think the true villain comes out of nowhere and kicks you in the ass! Overall, I definitely recommend this book for any lover of fantasy and specifically the Shadowhunters world that Cassandra Clare has created!

God Will you do make it hard to love you! Jesus. I will always be on team Will okay but god he is just so a dick in this one, to the point when I hated him at times like fucking hell calm down. Like I know why is doing he but Jesus it is just so annoying like he is the Original gaslighter, but I do still love him. Also I will always be on team Will and Tessa as well but girl I was have pushed him down some stairs if I was her. This was a re-read for me as I wanted to re-read the Infernal Devices before I read the Last Hours series but I read Chain of Gold and I have totally forgot what happens in it and now the series in complete I do in fact need to read them. Also I love revisiting my queen Sophie and Charlotte 🧎🏻‍♀️ also I will say I actually didn't hate Tessa this time which is some kind of miracle because god I kinda hater her when I first read this series as I thought it was a bit of a cry baby like no where near as bad as Clary because I will always be a hater of her in the Moral Instruments because she is fucking annoying, I said what I said. Also I have missed my sweet wholesome and fluffy bean which is Henry, I would be willing to be fight the entire Clave for my man because I fucking love him and I think he is a genius and I love him. I just love all these characters chaos like I just know that Charlotte is just so over their shit. Also Will is just a dick but god him and Tessa have soooo much chemistry, like the Attic from the whole just pissing each other off to the bit when Will thought Tessa was dead, I would die from them and I just know the pain that I am about to thought and I don't think if I am ready to got though it again but I will. Also don't get me wrong I fucking love Jem he is a sweetheart and he is so kind and does make me cry a number of times but Will just Will and you can't compete which him and some how I don't know why I some how hated Nate more than a did the first time, which I didn't know what possible but.... it is happen. <3 Church, you are the icon<3 However, the reason why this one is an only four stars is that i think the start is a bit slow and hard to get into it and at times it just felt like nothing was happening and that we were struck in one bit of the story.

Epilogue

'Magnus reached behind himself and locked the parlour door. Very well, he said Why don't you tell me what the problem is.'

*Please note that is review was written after my third time reading this book *

I forgot how much I love this story, and the narrator captures it beautifully. I love her voices amd characterization of each person throughout the book.
