Why did Cassandra Clare right this? Cause she shouldn’t have. It was so slow and confusing and random. This series didn’t need 3 extra books. It should have ended after the 3rd one. The writing style is just so juvenile, even for a YA book. Like she’s got figure out better word choices — she used “canoodling” in the first book and I thought that was the last time I would ever have to read that, but I start reading this and what do you know, there it is again. The only redeeming quality about this book is Simon’s character. I love him and his story is just so sad.
