HOW DID PEOPLE NOT LIKE THIS???? its a masterpiece i fear. i gasped audibly at the ending xaden my beloved.... 
as a law student it takes a lot to keep me up at 2am reading so hats off here. something about this series just scratches my brain in the best place. i love xaden and violet soooo much, and violet is very personal to me as a fellow hypermobile girlie it means a lot to see her be a fucking badass. personally i disclote from picking a bag up so shes braver than meat least youre  xx
i have to say how much i love xaden and violet again irs been a while since a couple did this to me. that ending is sooo frustrating as a xaden lover (as a lesbian hes in my group of acceptable men) but i know its going to make SUCH a good third book. i definitely made the right decision buying the hardback and not waiting for the paperback to come out because this was everything i needed and more. people said this was bad???? i truly loved it so much.

when xaden said "the world does not exist for me beyond you" it gave alec lightwood and people who know me know that that is the highest compliment i can give to a character.

fuck me i am destroyed

This book is huge, and moves slower than fourth wing, but it’s just as dense if not more so. The length and density makes it difficult to binge read, it’s easier to read in smaller chunks. Can’t wait for Onyx Storm!

Slow first half of the story - but paced amped up in the second half ! Can’t wait for the next book!
What a cliffhanger!

I put this on par with the first book. Definitely more heavy on the trigger warnings. There are some absolutely brutal scenes that make deaths from the first book seem tame. Don't take that warning in the beginning of the book lightly. That being said, this book plays on all the emotions and is just wonderfully written.
