This book was really good! The beginning was dreadfully slow, but in exchange the characters were lovable and I was drawn to them immediately. My personal favorite was Will Herondale. :) I liked how the protagonist, Tessa, grew over the course of the story and took more action than I expected. I appreciated the touches on gender roles at the time and how that affects the Shadowhunter culture and lifestyle. Overall, I loved this book, but I did lose some motivation halfway through. Once I passed the first half, the book was fast paced and I was unable to put it down.
