Reasons I want to read & own this book:
1. The cover. Guilty. I love books with pretty covers. They lure me in like nobody's business (Shameless, I know). But let's talk about that dress. THAT DRESS. Isn't it beautiful? I just love book covers with girls in fabulous dresses and the fact that the red dress the cover girl is wearing is a red dress from the Victorian era just makes my inner fashionista geek out like crazy :D
2. The genre. Young Adult historical fiction/steampunk/urban fantasy. The Infernal devices is a series that just has a bit of everything. These books are so creative and so well-written. They feel like you are a reading a period novel, but a fun one. There is just so much depth in these books and the fantasy elements are so interesting. Need Clockwork Princess asap!
3. The character development. The characters in the Infernal devices series are just SO amazing. They really tug on the heartstrings and are so layered and complex and unique. I love them all so much and need to know what happens with Will, Jem, Tessa, Sophie, Gideon, Charlotte and the rest of the cast of characters.
What do you guys think? :)
I was pulling my hair out at the end of Clockwork Prince, knowing the long wait we'd have to undergo!! Great pick Jennifer! I can't wait to get my hands on this either! :)
ReplyDeleteOur Wow
I've never been so excited yet so scared for a book. I loved the way Clockwork Prince ended and I just don't want anything to mess up Jem and Tessa. They are so perfect together. And mean old Will can just find someone new! He should have looked into his curse sooner.
ReplyDeleteMy WOW
I need this book. I really do! I cannot wait to see how Cassandra is planing to get herself from whole this. Just please don't let Jem dye! Even though I'm maybe team Will I just love Jem! Great pick! :)

DeleteThe covers of this series are so gorgeous. I haven't started it yet, but I'll wait for this one and read them all at once, I think! I've heard about that torturous cliffhanger at the end of book 2!
ReplyDeleteI don't think there are many TBR shelves that are missing this book. The Infernal Devices caused so much excitement with their releases and I'm pretty sure this is one of the most anticipated books for next year. I can't wait. Great pick!

I'm so excited for this! Cassie has hinted numerous times that this book would be heartbreaking, and I really can't wait to read it! :)

I'm a Mortal Instruments Fan, but I have to admit that I haven't started the spin-off series yet. I wanna wait until all three of those are out in German as well, so I can read them in one awesome rush. That's gonna take a little while longer, though. ^^ However, I can see why all of you are so eager on this one, so nice pick! =)
