To save her mother's life, Clary must travel to the City of Glass, the ancestral home of the Shadowhunters -- never mind that entering the city without permission is against the Law, and breaking the Law could mean death. To make things worse, she learns that Jace does not want her there, and Simon has been thrown in prison by the Shadowhunters, who are deeply suspicious of a vampire who can withstand sunlight.

As Clary uncovers more about her family's past, she finds an ally in mysterious Shadow-hunter Sebastian. With Valentine mustering the full force of his power to destroy all Shadow-hunters forever, their only chance to defeat him is to fight alongside their eternal enemies. But can Downworlders and Shadowhunters put aside their hatred to work together? While Jace realizes exactly how much he's willing to risk for Clary, can she harness her new found powers to help save the Glass City -- whatever the cost?

Love is a mortal sin and the secrets of the past prove deadly as Clary and Jace face down Valentine in the final installment of the New York Times bestselling trilogy The Mortal Instruments.

I ended having a lot of time yesterday to finish this book. I finally finished my first class, an intensive class, which means only 6 to go! I ended devouring this book, to prepare myself for City of Fallen Angels, which I’m supposed to get today (go Amazon go!) I just love this series.

Can’t I just say I love the story? There is always something going, some awfully well written twists. I was captivated from the first pages. I just adore that there’s always something going, something to keep you addicted. It made me laugh, cry, scream, cheer, and smile. I just love how Clare can make me feel so many different things while reading it. The ending is so great, but even if it was supposed to conclude the series, it still made me wish for a sequel (which is coming out today!!)

I absolutely adore the characters. Of course, I still like Clary, and I still adore Jace. The biggest change in this book for me was Alec. I adore him now! I think we get to see a different side of him in this one, which makes him more likable. Also, can I say that I really like Magnus? Warlock all the way! He is funny and totally awesome.

I love Cassandra Clare. She is an amazing writer! Can’t wait for CoFA!

This is worth a really big 10/10!

I realized that my copy of City of Glass had a preview of City of Fallen Angels. I forgot about that, so when I saw it, it made me scream like a fan girl. I’m dying for the fourth installment of The Mortal Instruments
