City of Heavenly Fire by Cassandra Clare
5.0

What a perfect ending to this story. I was skeptical when Clare decided to do three more books after City of Glass, but I think these have only enriched the shadowhunter world and built upon The Infernal Devices and The Dark Artifices in a way that is still true to the original stories of The Mortal Instruments. These books have become some of my favorite pieces of fiction, and that is because of the diversity of the characters and the acknowledgment of the hard choices that have to be made even in mundane life. These books are about angels, demons, downworlders ... but most of all they are about what it feels like to be human.
