I mean I can appreciate it on one level because I liked hearing about the stories from her life to that point, but a big part of me would have preferred to imagine it myself. Maybe a brief epilogue with one random bridge scene would have felt less...definite? But this thing at the end with you know who and his being you know what, I can see that coming about as a result of something that happens in the next TMI book. And if that's the case, I guess it'd make more sense to me. I guess we'll see.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09040331919135317537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2773985780576975329.post-13486451324446647162013-03-27T09:56:28.179-05:002013-03-27T09:56:28.179-05:00"It's over and I already want to go back ..."It's over and I already want to go back and read all three books again...and again...and again." <-- THIS! That's exactly what I wanted to do! <br /><br />I personally didn't mind the epilogue, even though it made me sob uncontrollably. I thought it seemed fitting to help make everyone happy as well as set up their involvement with her new series that takes place after TMI.<br /><br />And bwahahahaha, yes Magnus will be eating those words someday! I love that!<br /><br />And I'm totally the same, didn't expect to really like this series much but definitely a favorite now!

I totally agree with your review. I cant put it down.<br />Read for your future!https://www.blogger.com/profile/08099781660339380505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2773985780576975329.post-72296109680168240022013-03-26T20:59:42.643-05:002013-03-26T20:59:42.643-05:00Wonderful review!

I have yet to read *any* Cassandra Clare, but everyone seems to love her, so I guess I'll have to give her a try. Though I must admit (very quietly) that I'm not all that fond of love triangles...Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08639732368395025578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2773985780576975329.post-66550576780882286382013-03-26T20:21:32.275-05:002013-03-26T20:21:32.275-05:00I want to read this...yet I can't make myself ...I want to read this...yet I can't make myself right now.

Anyway, my mind is blown by the idea of a guy reader for the audiobook. Very cool!<br />Also not a huge fan of epilogues but I understand why this one was necessary.<br />Emailing you about the rest :)Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04756695137600895936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2773985780576975329.post-27952682053774224662013-03-26T16:08:05.366-05:002013-03-26T16:08:05.366-05:00This is a GREAT review!

YES to this: "This was the most inherently beautiful yet exquisitely painful ending I've ever read." I do not know how she managed that, but I agree, bravo, CC! <br /><br />Interesting thoughts on the epilogue. I'd love to know your more specific feelings on that. There are parts of it that I loved more than others...but of course I can't say much here. Anyway, a fantastic book and series, and I'm GLAD there aren't 3 more because I don't think my heart could take it!! Thankfully we are getting more of the Shadowhunter world.

I am dreading the end, but Since you David it was dealt with in a great manner I am a little Less afraid.

It was so beautiful, I still can't get over its perfection. I cried all the time, but I think it was more because I couldn't stop thinking that that was the last book with those characters... It was the perfect ending. My only complaint is that I don't have a Jem of my own lolAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
