Clockwork Princess – Cassandra Clare

Clockwork Princess is the last book in the Infernal Devices trilogy, and the 3rd book in the Shadowhunter Trilogy.
I personally think that the trilogy had a very amazing build-up: Clockwork Angel had the great metamorphosis of plot twists, including Axel Mortmain turning out to be the main antagonist of the entire series, and the Magister of the books. Clockwork Prince had the supposedly cursed love triangle between Will, Tessa, and Jem (which will still continue, but no more spoilers further than this), and Clockwork Princess being the ultimate climax of the series, with all of the most intimidating responses, the most petrifying decisions, and overall, the unfortunate, sorrowful endings of the book.

When I had finished the book, it had put me to serious tears; all of the characters in the trilogy were equally loved and equally important to me, and I was disheartened at the end.
Even though this book had me sobbing at 3 AM, you should still read it and experience every single snippet of love, loss, and heartbreak throughout the well planned yet tragic book that Cassandra Clare has written with her amazing penmanship skills.

As you may have read in the last books, Tessa was going to get married to Jem, with a smiling face, but a tragedy inside her for breaking Will’s heart. The beginning, middle, and finale of the book had equally exquisite elements that made the book a simply ‘happy yet sad’ read. Many times I had noticed that Clockwork Prince had inserted effective cliffhangers to the end, and answered all of Clockwork Princess’ questions with either contentment, or gloominess.
Jem’s curse had increased, as opposed to Will’s prophecy, which turned out to be a lie right from the start to create a ploy that he was to never love again, while the loyalty of the Clave, the trouble caused by Axel Mortmain, and the chance of Jem leaving the world without coming back troubled the entire London Institute. Axel Mortmain had bought up London’s entire Yin Fen stock and wouldn’t agree to give it to Jem unless they traded it for Tessa, because she was the only person who could help him. 

One of the second handedly regretful scenes was when Gabriel and Gideon Lightwood had called on the London Institute for help because their father had contacted astriola and became a worm.
Seriously.
A literal worm.

The exclamation caused scattered laughter from the group, mostly from Will who had a grudge against Gabriel since they were both young, but nevertheless agreed to help him kill their father, since the situation was getting out of control. And when I say ‘out of control’, I mean that Gabriel’s father had killed many people, including Rupert Blackthorn, the fiancé of Tatiana Lightwood, who was Gabriel’s sister.
The murder of their father caused a rift between the 2 brothers and Tatiana, who vowed never to trust them again, along with her developing a hatred for Will, Jem, Tessa, Charlotte, and Henry.

Altogether, this book has the perfectly pastiche recipe for spellbinding laughter, horror, romance, and action, and I would recommend this book, and the Infernal Devices trilogy to anyone who is in dire need of a fantasy book or trilogy to binge.
This book has my favor and will probably do yours too, with wonderfully schematic elements that will make you keep reading until the end. This book was an absolute page turner, and a 20/10 best read.
