City of Glass
4.75/5

- i really liked this book. it kept me hooked and the plot twists (the ones i didn't see coming such as

Hodge being Samuel

) made me jaw drop
- yk again i could really do without the whole

Clary and Jace believe they are siblings but still go for it anyways thing. and it didn't have to drag on for TWO AND A HALF BOOKS

- i also could've done without that whole thing between Sebastian and Clary

especially since there's a chance Sebastian knew Clary was his sister :/

- anyways ignoring that, i loved seeing Idris and i love that the whole plot was located there
- oh my god 

valentine died thank god i hated him i also hated that he killed jace

- this is pretty close up there with City of Bones (maybe it's a bit higher idk) but City of Ashes is definitely the worst one so far 
- ALSO WHY DID

MAX HAVE TO DIE

So much action! Also just when you thought you have the whole story about Jace and Clary straight, yet another plot twist shows up. Or two. I look forward to where we go from here.

The pacing is a bit slow, which keeps this from being a 5, but this is as good as I remember is. Such a riot, much drama, very angst
