I literally don't have anything to say. I feel as if I will either love or hate the second half of the book depending on how Chain of Thorns ends up? It's always hard with the middle book because it isn't the end of the story so I have to see how it plays in the macro plot. I just wish we had some more time with the side characters but any scene with Cordelia and James made me very happy. Also, this book made me a Jesse Blackthorne Stan. I think it is a very strong second book, and Cassandra Claire has gotten a lot better at entwining a strong plot with her always fantastic characters. <spolier> I think I am most looking forward to the Magnus, Will, and James journey kladsjflkjasdklj it's going to be so chaotic. Also Jem playing at the wedding made me so happy and the scene of James showing Cordelia around the house and Jesse and Lucie dancing and basically everything lol. I just don't have coherent thoughts so rip.
