I was hoping to hold off a little longer to read this because I knew I would be flying through it and the next book doesn't come out for a few more months (City of Heavenly Fire comes out in May). But I just couldn't. And now, I am already over halfway after three days of reading!
Obviously I love the way she writes as well as her characters. I'm sure anyone who has read her books get deeply invested in her characters' lives. Jace, Clary, Simon, Isabelle, Alec, Magnus, Luke, Jocelyn - all of these characters have such relatable and real-life human, as well as supernatural and non-human qualities that draw us mere mortals toward them.
None of the books in the series so far has disappointed me. None have lack of adventure or humour or romance or action or emotion or death. Each book has its fair share of all of these things. And I love that. There has been no down-hill slope for the series so far. However, I do hope Cassandra, being as talented and instinctive as she is with her writing, doesn't attempt to draw out the series and stops it when the audience wants more, rather than when the audience wants it to be finished.
