One of my absolute favorite Cassandra Clare series of all time. The characters, time period, and plot are so well executed and easy to read. Solid 5 stars.

An American young lady, Tessa, comes to Victorian England to be reunited with her brother but finds out that he is missing. She starts a journey of self discovery as well as the discovery of the supernatural world. She is kidnapped and forced to train the power she had no idea she even had. The Shadowhunters whisk her away from her kidnappers and promise to help find her brother, while Tessa goes through an identity crisis, not knowing what she is anymore.
That is the plot summarised without giving away any spoilers.
They already had me at Victorian England tbh, however Tessa was borderline rude when it came to London and I kinda took it to heart lol. London was my home for a looong time and I cannot understand how someone could hate it, even with the Victorian fog and all. London is beautiful, Tessa! Bugger off.
In typical Cassie Clare fashion, there is a love triangle between Tessa, Will and Jem. Will is the rebel, the bad boy, the suffer in silence and mask it with humour kind of man. He is Jace through and through. While Jim is shy, reserved, gentle and kind.
While my dream would be for all of them to date each other, I’m not sure I’ll get to see that so I am quite bummed about it.

I’m actually really disappointed I didn’t love this book because I thought the series was going to be gold to me. I love books set in Victorian era and I loved mortal instruments etc growing up but it just didn’t hit the spot for me. I will say that I did start to enjoy it more towards the end so I may still continue the series but I’m just really sad i didn’t love it.
The world building and characters are great, the writing was easy and flowing making it a fast paced read but something about it still *dragged*.
