In My Mailbox #29

Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare
*I went to Cassandra Clare's book signing this week and it was a blast. I am very excited to read this as the reviews have been quite good so far.  I just started it last night and I am already hooked.  If you are interested in winning your own signed copy of this book, feel free to check out my international giveaway!
Goodreads says, "When sixteen-year-old Tessa Gray crosses the ocean to find her brother, her destination is England, the time is the reign of Queen Victoria, and something terrifying is waiting for her in London's Downworld, where vampires, warlocks and other supernatural folk stalk the gaslit streets. Only the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the world of demons, keep order amidst the chaos. Kidnapped by the mysterious Dark Sisters, members of a secret organization called The Pandemonium Club, Tessa soon learns that she herself is a Downworlder with a rare ability: the power to transform, at will, into another person. What's more, the Magister, the shadowy figure who runs the Club, will stop at nothing to claim Tessa's power for his own Friendless and hunted, Tessa takes refuge with the Shadowhunters of the London Institute, who swear to find her brother if she will use her power to help them. She soon finds herself fascinated by—and torn between—two best friends: Jem, whose fragile beauty hides a deadly secret, and blue-eyed Will, whose caustic wit and volatile moods keep everyone in his life at arm's length...everyone, that is, but Tessa.  As their search draws them deep into the heart of an arcane plot that threatens to destroy the Shadowhunters, Tessa realizes that she may need to choose between saving her brother and helping her new friends save the world...and that love may be the most dangerous magic of all."

  6. So awesome that you met Cassie! I bought CA the day it came out and I still haven't started it yet! Can't wait to read it, but it's one of those books I'm in no rush to read because I know I'll love it. Does that make sense? Anyway, can't wait for your review!
