a nice, sweet add on to the infernal devices. it was cute to see Jem and Tessa enjoying life after the series and how they were living. it was in lighting to see Jem's growth from a Silent brother to human and how he learns to love again. Tessa and Jem are an adorable couple, and it was heartwarming to see their story and to actually get a relationship between the two of them without something in the way.  i loved seeing how they were even more bonded over Will and how they both delt with the grief of losing him. i don't think that this little add on was personally needed but it's not like its completely unnecessary and does not add anything important to the story. nice little, short read if you get time and especially for those who are Jem lovers then this add on is for you. my favorite quote from the mini book that i will never forget is "It was made out in the name of Tessa Herondale Carstairs." this book says everything and rapes up the story perfectly. best quote ever and my new favorite quote. when i read it broke my heart because it is so perfect and incorporates absolutely everything. those who have read the whole series would understand the quote and its meaning sand how powerful it is.
