It felt like a bit more of an ending than City of Glass. I think it helps to think of the first three books in this series as the trilogy and the second set of three books as a seauel trilogy. I was sad that this was the end of the series and didn't fully realize until halfway through the book. As expected of the final book of a series, lots of loose ends/unfinished stories were tied up. A good ending to the series - finished up the plot points that needed to be wrapped up. I need to see if the characters were this self-aware in the previous book, because with a lot of the dialogue/interactions it really felt like a couple of them had gone through years of therapy between this book and the last. Really had its Spiderman: No Way Home moment. I had far too many moments trying to figure out where each familiar last name and name came from but eventually gave up.

Beautiful wrap up to the series. Bring tissues for both happy and sad tears. A thrilling last installment to this series and I will greatly miss all the characters.

This plot was a hot mess 😂 but somehow I liked this more than the previous books in the series! I didn't skim read like the last two. I still don't like Jace and Clary but they didn't annoy me as much through this book. ALEC HAS ALWAYS BEEN AND ALWAYS WILL BE A BADASS and people need to appreciate him more! Loved the Malec moments. They drove me through the book. And Maia of course! She is awesome. 

FINALLY DONE TMI! Goodness. Loved the cameos of other characters and getting to meet Emma and the Blackthorns!

WHY does the incest keep coming back. It's so unnecessary.
