I agree. I was so upset about CoHF and didn't want the series to end!! Also the deaths in CoHF were upsetting): well a couple of them.
I've only read the first two books and I enjoy them, but don't love them? I just don't get the whole obsession with it... :(
I love the series, and I don't say this very often about books, but I am glad that the author kept going with the series with a total of seven books.
It's six books actually! But she's writing three more shadowhunter series
Ok there's actually 9 books total if you're counting that way


I LOVE This Series xD
City of Heavenly Fire Was The EPIC Finale

I love them but we all have our own opinions I actually prefer the infernal devices
Awesome. I really liked COHV but the end was sad.

For a lot of people (myself included) it was my first YA book, the one that made me love reading :)

A lot of people say that they don't like the 4th and 5th books but I find them as good as the other 3! But COHF is the all time best. I don't like Clace. I wish Clary wasn't a main charcter. Shes childish and bland. Alec and Magnus and Simon and Izzy are better in my opinion

Wait- so Clary is still stupid in the later books?!?!?!

Clary isn't really awful to me but I don't like her much. Like you said she can be stupid and just she doesn't seem like a good main character. I would like her more if her role was like the size of Izzy's or someone.

I definitely agree with that! Maybe even smaller for me :P

I'm new so to randomly join the convo I think that Clary is sort of a typical Damsel in Distress*modernized*....:P

That's such a perfect description. I really do feel like she is a Mary Sue type character. And I really hate her for it.....I wish I liked this series more....

I thought the plot was interesting, but none of the characters really got to me. Clary had no personality, Jace was annoying, Simon was too whiny, etc. AND (I had a HUGE problem here). There's a whole Star Wars reference in the first book about the whole Hans-Leia I love you, I know thing. HOWEVER- Cassandra Clare said it was from the WRONG star wars movie?!?!??! LIKE WHAT!??!? If you're gonna write an awesome nerd line and reference star wars, you can't MESS IT UP!??!?!

You've taken the words straight out of my mind, my good friend. We think very similarly.:)

Haha that's awesome :D

I feel like I should've found Magnus but I found his relationship with Alec really creepy....cause he's over 300 years old...yet his relationship with Alec didn't seem very mature in my mind?

Yeah- I'm saying he was too immature about it!
