The Iron Trial by Holly Black, Cassandra Clare

5.0

This book is SO AWESOME. And the fact that Cassandra Claire participated in it made it even more awesome. The writing was great and the whole idea of magic school and mages and elementals and magic was really cool and I personally LOVE fantasy books about this topic. The whole atmosphere of the book was entertaining and alluring. Plus, the whole plot took my breath away. Like when I reached the main plot twist I had to read the scene several times to really get what happened inside my head😂There are some moments throughout the book where I just stare at the scene I'm reading for several moments then think "Wait, What? What the hell just happened?".I was surprised and didn't expect what happened at all and I guess THAT what truly made it a great book and what made me love it even more bc I love it when books surprise me. The friendship was heartwarming and so sweet. I just love everything about the book 😍❤️
