Honestly...I waited for the story to end LIKE THIS??!!? And by "end", I mean a shameless intro to I'm sure another series by Cassandra Clare. There's nothing worse than new pivotal characters being introduced in the last book of a series. The way this book ended, I'd be shocked if there isn't a spin-off series.

The only reason I finished the book is because I had already invested so much time in in, but to be honest - I didn't love the last couple of books in this series. Definitely good have been completed in 3 or 4 books at MOST. This book just dragged on way too much - most of it setting the stage for a spin-off.

In my humble opinion, the only way this book could have been saved is if it were incorporated in the previous books and therefore not written at all.
