I love Sebastian, what can I say? He's evil and manipulative but deep down all he wants is not to be lonely. So he decides to bond Jace to him causing him to be evil as well. As if he isn't a big enough jerk at times right? Anyway, so Clary being her wanna be bad ass self decides to run off with the duo alone while telepathically updating Simon via some pretty cool magic rings. I need to get myself a pair of those, for real! It's a great story, it keeps you interested, and it had a great ending. Everything you could ever come to expect from another great Cassandra Clare novel.

This book was by far my favorite. That tends to happen a lot with me. The further I get into a series, the more I like each book after the previous one. Maybe it's because Clare's writing just keeps getting better. Or maybe it's because I finally know what happens with the cliffhanger she always leaves us. That's what I love about Clare. She always leaves us wondering what's going to happen next. In return, we simply MUST read the next book. I'm very sad that the next will be the last, but I'm looking forward to a ton of movies in the future! So even though the series may be coming to an end, the Mortal Instruments takeover has only just begun. Move over Twilight, there's a new obsession in the making!
