Fans react to ‘Clockwork Prince’

It’s been only a day (officially) since Clockwork Prince has been released, but already it’s causing heartbreak and excitement around the fandom (Hearts and Kindles beware!)

Check out what some fans had to say (spoiler-free!) about Clockwork Prince:

Jemina Venter: “Loved it!! Was so difficult to put down when it came time for lunch! I feel as if i my heart broke at least twice before I got to the end. I can’t wait to get into some fanart – but I think I’ll read it again to help settle my mind over everything that happened – sooooooooo goooood! TID are my favourites over TMI, and this one just shone brilliantly! Much ❤ to Cassie Clare & her amazingness in creating these characters that just inspire you to feel love and anger and heartbreak along with them!”

magelet87: “OMFG!!!! I just finished reading it. I was sobbing most of the time, and my sister kept asking me “What wrong? Why are you crying?” . I tried to explain, but in the end all I could say was “Read it, then you’ll understand”

Jenna: “My heart has literally (not literally) been ripped out of my chest and gnawed on. I just cried for the last half hour, and I rarely cry about books, let alone for a half hour! I was slamming my fist down so hard by the end that I may have injured myself.”

Kathy: “Ms. Clare does not disappoint. As prequels to her wonderfully successful series, The Mortal Instruments, and through her careful crafting of this series, you are taken on a journey wrought with romance, friendship, mystery, indecision, treachery, action, love, hate, devotion, and self-discovery all enmeshed in this beautiful story.”

Lana: “If I didn’t love my awesome kindle, I would have chucked it across the room at the end!!!”

Christy: “Aw I absolutely loved it!!! Read the whole thing yesterday, just could not put it down! I don’t think I can cope with another whole yer before the next book!!! It did however break my heart!”

pessimist: “Clare’s best book by far. Emotionally invested in all the characters and for the first time i dont dislike anyone in the love triangle….though im a will/tess shipper i love the direction that CP took, and wooow Jem was really surprising…..pleasantly so. I still feel for Jem…feel bad for him but the added forbidden-ness of tess/will I love…..aaah it made me laugh….”

Erica: “After I read clockwork angel, I was like I think I might like TID more than the TMI, after reading clockwork prince, I now officially love TMI so much more! I feel like we didn’t find out enough about mortmain and it focused to much on the relationships and I cried for the whole night after finishing it, my heart was ripped out of my chest!”

mina blak: “I’ve read Clockwork Prince a day ago, but it’ll take me a few more days and perhaps a re-read to put myself back together! I’m still reeling from the emotional impact it had on me and all I can say is that I’ve never enjoyed pain and heartbreak to this degree before in my whole life! This book is just so absolutely beautiful, heart-wrenching, action-packed, intriguing, passionate and soul-consuming – it’s everything I’d hoped it would be and of course, it left me desperate for more! Never have I been so completely torn between two (fictional) guys – if I was Tessa I’d be forced to either join a convent or simply insist on a three-way-relationship for good! This book is a literary masterpiece! Rating: ♥♥♥♥♥”

Sara: “An absolutely wonderful book! I liked it a lot and i loved seeing how the characters developed in this awesome story! I was hooked the whole time and I couldnt even put the book down! But I was extrememley dissapointed at the end D: i was getting ready to hurl the book across my room in anger until i remembered how great it was before! The ending didnt ruin the book though, it was just dissapointing in my opinion, so people who have not read this book yet, READ IT! Its a very good book! I give it five stars not counting the last few chapters…”
