“ you are not the last dream of my soul“

synopsis
Danger and betrayal, love and loss, secrets and enchantment are woven together in the breathtaking finale to the #1 New York Times bestselling Infernal Devices Trilogy, prequel to the internationally bestselling Mortal Instruments series.
THE INFERNAL DEVICES WILL NEVER STOP COMING
A net of shadows begins to tighten around the Shadowhunters of the London Institute. Mortmain plans to use his Infernal Devices, an army of pitiless automatons, to destroy the Shadowhunters. He needs only one last item to complete his plan: he needs Tessa Gray.
Charlotte Branwell, head of the London Institute, is desperate to find Mortmain before he strikes. But when Mortmain abducts Tessa, the boys who lay equal claim to her heart, Jem and Will, will do anything to save her. For though Tessa and Jem are now engaged, Will is as much in love with her as ever.
As those who love Tessa rally to rescue her from Mortmain’s clutches, Tessa realizes that the only person who can save her is herself. But can a single girl, even one who can command the power of angels, face down an entire army?
Danger and betrayal, secrets and enchantment, and the tangled threads of love and loss intertwine as the Shadowhunters are pushed to the very brink of destruction in the breathtaking conclusion to the Infernal Devices trilogy
*GOODREADS*
spoilers free review :
with the last book of the trilogy i can now say that this trilogy is mostly character focused don’t get me wrong the action is definitely there but character redemption and growth is mostly what this book was about .
the writing is beautiful the characters are raw and you will grow to care about everyone of them .
there were some references to the mortal instruments and some characters we meet in the mortal instruments as well but i love how it didn’t take much of the story.
the ending was beautiful sad but beautiful it’s been a while since i felt like this about a book cassandra did so well with this book i could hardly hold myself from crying. even if you didn’t like TMI or you’re hesitant from diving into the shadow hunter chronicles * there are a lot of books!!* you should give this trilogy a try it’s one of my favourite trilogies of all time.
spoilers review :
ok where should i start, let’s talk about who cassndra described emotional scenes like when will lost his parabatai or at the very end when will was dying * crying crying and then crying some more* i didn’t think cassandra was able to do such thing to my heart!!
jessamine’s fate though i do feel very sorry for her!
the romance in this book wasn’t forced and i enjoyed them! yes you can see that she was trying to put everyone together at last but for me it wash’ annoying at all!!
maguns’s presence is the trilogy crucial and fun but not overwhelming and i liked that as well.
okay can we talk about the ending one more time!! i don’t think i will ever recover from it. tessa my poor baby!! there is part of me that is sad because will died and she lived on without him but the other part is relieved to know that jem is still with her!
i do want to know what will happen to them i wish tessa would become shadow hunter so she won’t have to see another one of her loved ones grow old and die!!
on the other hand i can’t wait to read the next books with their children i am hoping cassndra would clarify would happen to sophie and Charlotte and the rest.
my WILL I CAN’T AND I WON’T GET OVER HIM!!
QOUTES :
” shadowhunter blood is like gunpowder in your veins cecy once it’s lit it can’t be extinguished ”
” our hearts they need a mirror tessa we see our better selves in the eyes of those who love us ”
” the world is a wheel” he said” when we rise or fall we will do it together “
” there was human goodness in the world she though all caught up with desires and dreams regrets and bitterness resentments and power but it was there ”
” you are not the last dream of my soul you are the first dream the only dream i ever was unable to stop myself from dreaming you are the first dream of my soul and from that dream i hope will come all other dreams a life time worth”
