"Clockwork Angel" is a thrilling story filled with action, suspense, drama and romance that you will never want to put down. It is the prequel to Cassandra Clare's "The Mortal Instruments" series and, in my opinion, is just as good as (or better than) the original story. I would recommend this book to any teenage girl who loves fictional stories about worlds hidden in ours. Anyone that enjoys mystery and/or romance would love it. I loved this book because it mixes all of my favorite book characteristics. The characters are funny, the plot is extremely interesting with lots of twists and, of course, I loved the whole shadowhunter world with all of the monsters we knew growing up. I wouldn't change anything about the story... It is a perfect balance of sad and happy, with frustrating moments that made me want to chuck it across the room. I thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait to start the next one in the series.
