It has been a while since I have been so into a book or book series that I couldn't put it down. That is the case with this trilogy. Every time I put the book down I found myself constantly thinking about it. This is by far one of the best series I have ever read I cant believe it took me so long to read them. I cant decide on how I feel about the ending. On one side I am completely heart broken but then again I think that it couldn't have ended any better. I read this series first before the mortal instruments and I found that I understood everything without a problem. If you have not read this series yet I highly suggest that you do
