City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare - Book Talk


This isn't like any of my other posts because I'm not reviewing the book just letting loose all my emotions after having just finished it.

By the Angel that was the most frustrating ending.

I read City of Bones a while back but never finished the series, a decision I am now beating myself up about but also thanking myself for making because quite frankly the series is driving me insane...

The ending of City of Glass was so perfect I didn't even want to read this book because I didn't want anything bad to happen in the next book which from reading the blurb I knew was inevitable.

I am so emotionally engaged with these characters thanks to the brilliance that is Cassandra Clare's writing that I literally scream and swear whenever a character makes a bad decision which in this book is CONSTANTLY.

First let me talk about the ending, of course Jace was going to get mad at himself for how he treated Clary but I figured after a heartfelt monologue from Clary he'd get over it, which I think he did BUT THEN WE FIND OUT LILITH IS STILL CONTROLLING HIM THROW SEBASTIAN/JONATHAN and now he's like weirdly bound to Seb because they shared each others blood or something but what I really don't understand is like, will Jace now be part demon? Does this mean if Seb dies Jace will die as well?! ALSO Clary will be devastated now because it's another thing stopping her and Jace being with each other I mean really Cassie GIVE THEM A BREAK its 4 books into the series and they haven't had a chance to just enjoy their relationship yet! 

Obviously in the next book Seb (and maybe Jace now) will be the big super villain which is interesting and I'm intrigued to see how he's defeated (IF HE IS DEFEATED WAHHHH) what with Jace in the picture now as well!

And Jocelyn has even more reason to hate Jace now as well I feel that will be a big hurdle to cross if Clary and Jace do EVENTUALLY start a functional relationship because Jocelyn could get all bad ass and it could be Jace's head she's smashing with a fridge next!

It's sort of devastating also that Jocelyn and Luke haven't gotten married yet, they probably won't now what with everything that is going:(

SIMON AND ISABELLE I SHIP THEM SO HARD! Simon has sacrificed so much and put up with everything that's been thrown at him I feel he deserves to be happy and even though his true love Clary may not reciprocate the same feelings, Isabelle does and I think they can and hopefully will be happy together! 

Oh yeah and I almost ripped the page out of my book when I thought Simon was going to die because he's by far my favourite character of the whole series and it breaks my heart how Shadowhunters automatically dislike him because he's a vampire. Also it really annoyed me when Clary was just going to let Simon die for her! She should have fought harder or even tried to sacrifice herself to save him because he's always been there for her ever since they were little kids!

I'm thinking Magnus will find a way of turning Alec immortal in the next book which will be interesting because I like their relationship and I'm intrigued to see what the price of immortality is!

ALSO... Where is Camille?! What is she going to do now AND the whole mystery with the Seelie Queen still hasn't been addressed I mean why is she so interested in Clary and Jace's relationship and what is this 'untold secret' she's been harping on about?! OH AND the whole prophecy tarot reading bit where Madame Dorothea said Jace would fall in love with the wrong person hasn't been resolved yet and in hoping all these questions are answered in the next book because I CANNOT WAIT UNTIL MAY 14TH OKAY I JUST CAN'T.

Well that's me done I think, I'm gonna hit the hay now and try to sleep with all these feels still going through my head! 

Buenas noches xx
