** spoiler uyarısı ** Bu üçlemedeki üç taneden, bu benim favorimdi. Ana karakterin eski kocasına nasıl döneceği paha biçilemezdi.
"Kaldırımın bittiği yer" gibi esprili şiirler.
Reading David T. Dellinger is like reading the works Mohandas Gandhi addressed to Anglo-Americans regarding his pacifist philosophy. Although sympathetic to many revolutionary movements utilizing physical force to achieve humane ends, both maintain that soul force is superior. As a young man, very concerned about and opposed to the United States' invasion of Vietnam, but very uncomfortable with hurting anyone, I found their arguments to be of great interest and went so far as to join The War Resister's League and subscribe to Liberation magazine. I probably saw Dave several times both in Washington, D.C. during the two demonstrations I attended there against the Vietnam war and in Chicago during the 1968 Democratic National Convention and during the demonstrations that followed during the Conspiracy Trial, but never actually was introduced to him. The only defendants I knew personally were Froines and Weiner, the two academics of the lot. Years after reading this book, needing shelf space, I divested myself of paperbacks. This title ended up at the Book Nook in Sawyer, Michigan.
More like 3 1/2 for me. Alright, let's start from the begining here. How about with Jace's attitude. He is in fact an absolute ass and yet some how I actually still find him intriguing. It's always refreshing to see people speak their minds, despite how harsh it may be. There were many times I was slightly annoyed by the way he acted towards certain people at certain times. His harsh actions were not always validated but I honestly understood them. I may not agree with someone being mean and crude to others all of the time and it may not even be the right thing to do; but I understand. If I had gone through the downfalls that he has I'd probably be the same way. Unfortunately, you can't just escape your past or even act like it doesn't bother you. When it came down to Jace and the way that he dealt with his "father", I can't hold that against him either. He still feels something towards his father despite everything that he knows about him. It's stupid for him to feel that way and it's stupid that he can't say he he doesn't hate home after that. Again it's understandable. A lot of kids would do anything to gain the respect of their parents, regardless. Even and especially if there were abused. Yea, the idea of everything that jace does and feels is slightly revolting but it's all understanding. Even the way he was acting towards Clary. I can only imagine wha the situation could do to someone's psychi. I actually find myself wanting the two of them to be together despite the fact that they think they are brother and sister. Mainly because I often forget about that. Then I remember it and find myself going "WTF Tiffany, that's demented and disgusting". At the same time I almost feel that it shouldn't be warranted that kind of response. The fell for each other before the found out. How do you just erase feelings? You don't. You can't. Even with that kind of insight, especially when they didn't grow up together, it's not going to be easy. It seems awful but another understandable thing. Now that I'm done talking about Jace and his "50 shades of fucked upness" let's move to Clary. Nice and short.. She seems stupid at times, she doesn't think about her actions. Besides the runes, she is practically rendered useless and is a liability. I havent been a huge fan of hers. That's where I'm leaving off with her. What they did to Simon annoyed me. However, having already started the next book, it ties in well. Im not a huge fan of his either but I like him better than Clary. At least he can kill a daemon. I like Alec. He seems pretty innocent and soft, I like that for him. He still shows strength through all that and he is super loyal. I like him with Magnus who has been awesome at helping them all out. I could care less about the rest of the characters. Valentine is a decent villain and makes things interesting. Luke has been awesome with Clary and I heart him. Her mom is non existent in this book so not much to say there. Isabel just annoys me. I loved when everyone came together at the end to support the battle with the shadow hunters and valentine.... Anyway, after all that I am ending this review so that I don't write a book of my own. Overall, I found the book intriguing, annoying, stupid, funny, outlandish, and multiple other adjectives. Major mixed feelings for the things that went down in this book.
