God Will you do make it hard to love you! Jesus. I will always be on team Will okay but god he is just so a dick in this one, to the point when I hated him at times like fucking hell calm down. Like I know why is doing he but Jesus it is just so annoying like he is the Original gaslighter, but I do still love him. Also I will always be on team Will and Tessa as well but girl I was have pushed him down some stairs if I was her. This was a re-read for me as I wanted to re-read the Infernal Devices before I read the Last Hours series but I read Chain of Gold and I have totally forgot what happens in it and now the series in complete I do in fact need to read them. Also I love revisiting my queen Sophie and Charlotte 🧎🏻♀️ also I will say I actually didn't hate Tessa this time which is some kind of miracle because god I kinda hater her when I first read this series as I thought it was a bit of a cry baby like no where near as bad as Clary because I will always be a hater of her in the Moral Instruments because she is fucking annoying, I said what I said. Also I have missed my sweet wholesome and fluffy bean which is Henry, I would be willing to be fight the entire Clave for my man because I fucking love him and I think he is a genius and I love him. I just love all these characters chaos like I just know that Charlotte is just so over their shit. Also Will is just a dick but god him and Tessa have soooo much chemistry, like the Attic from the whole just pissing each other off to the bit when Will thought Tessa was dead, I would die from them and I just know the pain that I am about to thought and I don't think if I am ready to got though it again but I will. Also don't get me wrong I fucking love Jem he is a sweetheart and he is so kind and does make me cry a number of times but Will just Will and you can't compete which him and some how I don't know why I some how hated Nate more than a did the first time, which I didn't know what possible but.... it is happen. <3 Church, you are the icon<3 However, the reason why this one is an only four stars is that i think the start is a bit slow and hard to get into it and at times it just felt like nothing was happening and that we were struck in one bit of the story.

For all the awful things these characters go through, and the people who are lost along that journey, I'd forgotten how much they are a family for each other too, whether they like it or not at times.
~
I'd forgotten some of the characters and events of this book, it's been quite a while since I last read it. But I've already found myself attached to some of the characters justice because they feel like long lost friends. And they feel reminiscent of some of the friends I have in my real life too.
~
I remembered some vague details of it, but on the whole it was like reading again for the first time. I enjoyed it overall, even if some of the bad events of the book felt personal to me (the way it might if I was the main character, which is how it sometimes is with books I read).

Cassandra Clare's world of shadow hunters and demons is exactly the fabulous escapism I remembered it to be from my childhood. Nostalgic and comforting, it is easy to be swept along in the adventure and stakes. The deeply internalised sexism in some of the characters was painful to bare at times, and I had forgotten that Will Herondale is such an emotionally stunted ass. But the Clockwork Angel is an otherwise gorgeously atmospheric found family drama, delightfully infused with supernatural politics and battle.
