Merged review:

Oh my. Oh my, oh my, oh my. This was fantastic! Awesome! Amazing. Those last 60 pages nearly killed me. So much to think about.....

This book was EPIC!!! It gave me the chills!! I am so speechless it was such a great book and filled with lots of action.

If there isn't a sixth book (and soon!!!) I'm going to be pissed!!!

Actual rating: 4.3

I really enjoyed this book! Probably my favourite of the series. Mainly due to the romance between Simon and Izzy and the scenes with Simon in. I really loved the scene with Raziel in, too. Clary and Jace's relationship was more enjoyable this time around.

I felt the Maia and Jordan storyline was just too played out and boring to be included. Looking back, it does feel like the action was squeezed into the last 60 pages or so and really small throughout. But I think that's just how TMI and Clare's writing works.

I'm reading TID before finishing CoHF but I am genuinely excited to read that book!

Spoilerok i actually teared up when malec broke up and i'm pretty sure they're the only pairing i talk about for this entire series but OK IT'S NOT MY FAULT THEY'RE SO UNDENIABLY prefect for each other but please don't do this to me i might just sob for 5 days straight. so looking forward to they reunion in cohf!! please
