“There are some people, people the universe seems to have singled out for special destines, special favors and special torments. God knows we’re all drawn toward what’s beautiful and broken I have been but some people cannot be fixed or if they can be, it’s only by love and sacrifice so great it destroys the giver.”
“My heart is your heart, your hands are my hands.”
Loved:
- I now know why I love the word “incredulous.”
- never knew how romantic it could be to plot the death of a (evil) sibling.
- Simon telling the plot of Star Wars as a bedtime story.
- Saint magnus’ home for wayward shadowhunters.
- the theme of struggle (good v evil, one v many, if someone’s save able, etc)
I will say, the book needed an edit to remove about have the uses of “incredulous.”
“The Bone Chandler” is one of the best chapters of any book I’ve ever read.
I liked Molly Quinn as the narrator, she would have been a great Clary in the show. Will forever fight the official pronunciations of some of the words.
