 “I never cared,” he said. “I wanted you anyway. I always wanted you.”
 
Is it bad that I was more invested in all the other character's POVs except for Clary's? There's so much in this book that I assume sets up for the next one, and so much happened in that epilogue.
My favorite scenes are still the ones with Brother Zacheriah, and TID references. I even liked Maia and Jordan. And Simon, he had lots of good moments here. The way Alec was acting frustrated me, I'm actually glad that Magnus found out what he was up to and ended it with him.
Anyways, I'm intrigued to see how this story ends.
