4.5. WOW. The beginning was... not as good as I hoped. I hoped that this would be my favorite book in the series, but it felt slow and a little boring. But then it suddenly became interesting and unexpected. There were storylines I hated and storylines I loved, but the ending convinced me that this was indeed the best book in the series. This book has broken my heart many times. I am sad that I finished the series, I started reading them because I was sad the show ended and I wanted new scenes of my favorite characters, but Cassandra Clare has written a whole universe so it's not the last of them I guess.

Also, Jem/Zacharia stealing Church made me laugh way too hard. Maybe that's just because I love Jem.
