City of Lost Souls {The Mortal Instruments Book Five}

This is the fifth book in The Mortal Instruments series, so if you have not read City of Bones, City of Ashes, City of Glass, and City of Fallen Angels I suggest you go back and read those before you read this book.
Wow. This book was intense. There was so much going on in this book I can't even put it all into this review. This book wasn't one character heavy. I felt that there was just enough of each character narrating it. As you all should know Sebastian, Jonathan Christopher Morgenstern is his birth name, rose from the dead with the demon Lilith. Jace and Sebastian are now bound together and if one of them gets hurt the other gets hurt as well, if one of them dies they both do. Sebastian controls Jace's mind and what he does and when Jace is actually himself he has no recollection of what happened when he was being controlled. The Clave was searching for him nonstop but other things got more important and less Shadowhunters were ordered to search for him. Obviously Clary, Isabelle and Alec are infuriated with this decision and they decide to try and find Jace on their own. Of course they have Simon, Isabelle's love but she doesn't know it yet, Magnus, Alec's immortal boyfriend, Jordan and Maia. Jace and Sebastian come for Clary at Luke's house and let's just say people don't go unscathed. While no one is paying attention Clary sneaks out and waits for them to come back so she can join them to take them down from the inside out. Clary has a way to communicate with Simon but its a secret and I will not tell you because it's pretty cool. When Jocelyn finds out Clary left she's furious. Magnus, Alec, Simon, and Isabelle summon a Demon and an Angel. One of them helps them one of them doesn't do them any good. Eventually Clary gets her Jace back, somehow someway she does. That's all I will say about this intense book and I left out a chunk of it for a reason, its shocking what this person does. Thank you so much for reading!
Happy reading!
