things that bothered me: julian, the length of this book (it dragged so much geez), julian
things that i liked: ty, kieran(love him), mark, diana (yas), the fair folk (i think they are really interesting and much less dramatic than shadowhunters lmao)
i just didn’t love this book, some parts got super boring and unnecessary, but the plot was great! however, i don’t think the dark artifices will ever ever be better than the infernal devices; will, tessa, jem, sophie, jessmine and everyone else holds a very special place in my heart ♥️
i found julian extremely creepy, he is just.... ew. i don’t like him and his relationship with emma is just weird and overly dramatic tbh. i guess there was just too much sexual tension/angst that it was overdone :/
yeah, sort of a “meh” book, with great plot twists and great lgbt rep but a very problematic character (jULiaN oMg) k bye i can’t write proper reviews lmfao


***update***
(yea im bored to the point where i come back to this review to change its rating lmao)
it’s been a couple of months and since qoaad came out everyone has been reading and reviewing it. so i watched some of those and i literally can’t remember a single thing from this book (i still can’t differentiate the blackthorns, who died, the famous cliffhanger and so on) so that’s a pretty good sign that this book is rly bad or it just wasn’t for me bc everyone seems to love this series gosh
