City of Heavenly Fire is the last installment of the Mortal Instruments series. Going into reading
it, I was feeling very hopeful yet worried it wouldn’t live up to my expectations, as I have loved
the whole series. Let me tell you, this book did not disappoint. The book follows the final story of
Clary and her friends facing the greatest evil to face shadowhunters as a whole, her brother
Sebastian. He uses the Infernal Cup to transform shadowhunters into nightmare creatures,

At the time I read this book, it was one of those times where this is exactly what I needed to

well as the brighter ones of her psyche. I was so drawn to this book, having finished it in about 3
days. I’ve never been into classics but I was pleasantly surprised with how this one was written,
