Review
It only took me like a year to read this. That isn't anything negative about this anthology, but it was my bedtime book and I was really bad about reading at night.
Some of the stories were a little bleh, but overall I liked them. They probably would've been better if it hadn't been years since I read anything in this series. I really enjoyed the story with Raphael Santiago. And it was sad but seeing Valentine and and the Circle was very interesting. Those are events you hear about in The Mortal Instruments, but don't actually see/experience.
Reading these stories made me want to get back into this world and read the books I've been putting off.
Thanks for reading!
Holly
