Clockwork Angel

Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Well, it was better than I expected. And by that, I mean better than The Mortal Instruments series.

Maybe I should give it two stars. I find this book very meh-inducing.

3 stars it is. To be honest, after I had to physically restrain myself from ripping the pages out of City of Ashes (it was a library book, and it wasn't worthy enough for me to pay to replace it,) anything would be better.

Then I read the blurb, and thought 'Jeeeeeez, this AGAIN?', but persevered, as my friend promised it was better than TMI.

Verdict: Meh.

Yeah, I guess it was alright and the plot was ok, but most of the time, when I like a book, I read it in a couple of sittings. This took me a week. Now, I usually tell when a book doesn't excite me because it takes me longer than 24 hours to read it. So, yeah, meh.

My one problem with this book:
WHY HAVE YOU USED THE SAME CHARACTERS AS TMI?????????

Clary and Jace annoyed me so much in TMI and I was like 'WHYYYYYYY HAVE YOU DONE THIS TO MEEEEEEE WUMMAN???????????' Granted, Tessa is a more realistic character than Clary, in that I could identify with her, and Will made me laugh, but STILL. WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY??????????????????

Oh, and one other thing, Southampton is awesome. Don't diss us scummers.
