The Skyscraper Book Project. #11

All of my book reviews will be short and quick to read. Why? Because, imagine yourself browsing the internet, looking for a book to read.
Now, you find this really long review and you read the whole thing, taking up about ten precious minutes of your life.
And you don't even like the sound of the book, bummer!
But now, going into absolutely minor and only-if-neccessary-details, you'll waste no time finding a book, instantly being able to tell if you want to read it.
Honestly, the back-breaking labour I endure to make book searching easier.
So here is The Skyscraper Book Project:



#11 is Clockwork Prince
By Cassandra Clare

Blurb: In the magical underworld of Victorian London, Tessa Gray finds her heart drawn more and more to Jem, while her longing for Will, despite his dark moods, continues to unsettle her. But something is changing in Will - the wall he has built around himself is crumbling. Could finding the Magister free Will from his secrets and give Tessa the answers to who she is and what she was born to do? As the search for truth leads the three friends into peril, Tessa's heart is increasingly torn, especially when one of their own betrays them...

Date started: lol, I forget

Date finished: 18th march '13

Rating out of five: four

Why not five?: although it was really good, it wasn't as captivating and mind-blowing as any of the Mortal Instruments books were. Some parts of the story had a dream-like kind of quality, like I was like, yeah this is good, but I feel like going outside to exercise-I don't exercise. But that's what happened.

Who would enjoy this?: anyone who loved the Mortal Instruments; people who like that kind of dark magic, demon, in-the-time-of-Queen-Victoria-thing.

Was it up to the Author's general standard?: Yup!

Was it a quick read?: yes, as long as you have maybe four consecutive hours, you could finish it in a day.
