I had to take a few days to ruminate on this book (colossus that it is) before writing up my review. So here goes: Overall I liked it. It wasn't quite as good a finale as book three was or as Clockwork Prince was but it was still pretty decent and set some things up for Clare's next series. There were some parts that made me laugh out loud, parts that made me tear up (view spoiler), parts that made me roll my eyes until they nearly got stuck (ahem Clary's speech to Jace at the end), and parts that annoyed me. I think the biggest problems for me were how long the book was and how many things didn't seem to really further the plot and how many different POVs we were given throughout the book. Some of the information that wasn't really pertinent to the plot was interesting in a world-building aspect, but it slowed the story way down for me, especially during the dramatic finale scenes which nearly took me out of the story and made it very hard for me to even finish as I would be so wrapped up in the big fights and then wrenched out of it with other scenes. And the POVs, while giving us insight into happenings throughout the world, were just too numerous. It reminded me a little of A Song of Ice and Fire except less well-done because of the brevity and choppiness of the multiple POVs (also it's usually not a good idea to introduce a new POV near the middle of the book. It just threw me off to suddenly have this new person narrating part of the story but only sporadically. It just seems to me that the story would've been neater and more coherent if there had been a finite number of narrators who could relay that same information from their own POV. I think with a little more editing and paring down to the essential bits of the story would've helped this book a lot. If the other information might have been pertinent it could've been related in a short story or e-novella or some other way so as not to bog down the story as a whole. That's just my two cents. (view spoiler) It certainly wasn't as disappointing and borifying as the fourth book (seriously I think that one put me to sleep and annoyed me all at the same time) but it certainly wasn't the big grand finale I was expecting or hoping for. And that makes me sad. Oh well, hopefully the next series comes back with a vengeance (and Church! Though seriously how is that cat still alive? What is it really?). (view spoiler)
