Favorite Quotes:
“there was something about having someone care about you like that that made you feel like you could never be totally alone.”
“if you never tell anyone the truth about yourself, eventually you start to forget. The love, the heartbreak, the joy, the despair, the things I did that were good, the things I did that were shameful-if I kept them all inside, my memories of them would start to disappear. And then I would disappear.”
“not from my heart, for I have not forgotten”…. “We are all pieces of what we remember. We hold in ourselves the hopes and fears of those who love us. As long as there is love and memory, there is no true loss.”
“every time I think I’m missing a piece of me, you give it back.”
“freely we serve because we freely love, as in our will to love or not; in this we stand or fall.”
Goodreads Synopsis:
In this dazzling and long-awaited conclusion to the acclaimed Mortal Instruments series, Clary and her friends fight the greatest evil they have ever faced: Clary’s own brother.
Sebastian Morgenstern is on the move, systematically turning Shadowhunter against Shadowhunter. Bearing the Infernal Cup, he transforms Shadowhunters into creatures out of nightmare, tearing apart families and lovers as the ranks of his Endarkened army swell.
The embattled Shadowhunters withdraw to Idris – but not even the famed demon towers of Alicante can keep Sebastian at bay. And with the Nephilim trapped in Idris, who will guard the world against demons?
When one of the greatest betrayals the Nephilim have ever known is revealed, Clary, Jace, Isabelle, Simon, and Alec must flee – even if their journey takes them deep into the demon realms, where no Shadowhunter has set foot before, and from which no human being has ever returned…
Love will be sacrificed and lives lost in the terrible battle for the fate of the word in the thrilling final installment of the classic urban fantasy series The Mortal Instruments!
My Review:
5/5 stars
First off, thank you Cassandra Clare for your creativity. This book was impeccably written. There was so much going on left and right but was written so well I wasn’t lost at all. This book left me on the edge of my seat wanting more. I loved the strength in all of the characters and loved how much they have grown/ changed since the beginning of the series. Please read this book!!!
