I just can't quit you, Cassandra Clare.
I really liked this. There were a few things that didn't make sense (if the LA Institute is one of the largest, and Julian was having to draw up patrol schedules for people who were presumably non-Diana adults, then why are there no other responsible Shadowhunters who could possibly have helped with the Blackthorn situation? Where does this Cameron Ashdown come from and aren't there more Ashdowns there? etc.). But now that I've got that out of my system, I really enjoyed this. Emma kicks ass, Julian is terrifyingly competent, I even liked Perfect Diego. And now Emma's going to make some really really bad decisions to fuel the rest of the trilogy! And for the record, I called it on the epilogue.
