I'll be honest it's a bit of a struggle to get through this series as times. There were new characters introduced in this book. I liked some of them, and others I'm indifferent towards. The plot was predictable and I found the writing style to be a little annoying at times.

i adore them as a friendship group, and as individual characters. i can confidently say that each one of them has gorgeous character development - emma's grief, julian's struggles as a single mother to his 4 younger siblings, christina confronting her past and settling into her future at the LA institute, mark coming to terms with his heritage/identity - even though lady midnight is the first book in the dark artifices trilogy ! there is no doubt in my mind that cassandra clare will expand upon the pieces of art that she has created here.
family and the ancient greek words for love, are other strong themes that are explored excellently in ld. the blackthorn siblings made me legitimately tear UP!! the group scenes were so well written, easy to follow, and the perfect showcase of everyone's unique personality.
and the SHIPPPSSS. my gawd, the relationships...emma and julian are an angst masterclass. they really feel like a married couple who've been together 50 years and have 50 kids. much older than their years, which is understandable given they've lived through the dark war, but they still have a youthfulness to them. i'm also a big fan of mark/christina plus i'm suspecting that
