Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare
5.0

So many series I've been reading lately have fallen victim to the 2nd novel syndrome--first book is fantastic, while the second book falls short of expectations, leaving it up to the third book to save the trilogy in the mind of the reader. Clockwork Prince does not fall into this category at all. If anything, I enjoyed Clockwork Prince more than Clockwork Angel, because I felt we had a grasp of the characters more in this one than the second one. The twists and turns kept me guessing and it was just as heartbreaking as I had been led to believe--I'm not sure I'll survive Clockwork Princess!
