Well, I am totally in love with Cassandra’s books, and Clockwork Angel, the book before this one, was one of my favourites. After reading this one, I fell in love again. There’s just something about the way she writes her characters and their adventures that I can’t get enough of.
While I won’t go into detail of what happens in this book, since it has quite the long description, and I don’t want to spoil anything, I will definitely gush over the characters! Time for me to be vague and hint at things mwaha!
I like the addition of seeing the perspective of the book through more characters, and I really liked getting to know about Sophie and Magnus more, even Gabriel and his brother were interesting. Charlotte and Henry are so cute at the end of the book, I just want to hug them! Jessamine I never really liked, but in this one, with what happens, I felt sorry for her which I never thought I would.
As for the love triangle, you get to know more about Jem and Will, as well as find out more about what Tessa might really be. The little bit of love starting between Tessa and Jem was too adorable, but I also felt for Will after I found out why he’s like the way he is. I don’t know who I’m rooting for now!
I definitely recommend reading this book, or at least picking up the first one to try it out. After they’re all released I’m going to read them all in a row!
