It’s true the people we meet shape us. But the people we don’t meet shape us also, often more because we have imagined them so vividly. There are people we yearn for but never seem to meet.

We need, in love, to practice only this: letting each other go. For holding on comes easily; we do not need to learn it.

Much of my life had been devoted to trying not to cry in front of people who loved me…You clench your teeth. You look up. You tell yourself that if they see you cry, it will hurt them, and you will be nothing but a sadness in their lives, and you must not become a mere sadness, so you will not cry, and you say all of this to yourself while looking up at the ceiling, and then you swallow even though your throat does not want to close and you look at the person who loves you and smile.

Never apologize for burning too brightly or collapsing into yourself every night. That is how galaxies are made.

That’s why I’m talking to you. You are one of the rare people who can separate your observation from your preconception. You see what is, where most people see what they expect.

These days of only poems and depression— what can I do with them? / Will they help me to notice / what I cannot bear to look at?”

Review City of Glass

Summary (GR):  To save her mother's life, Clary must travel to the City of Glass, the ancestral home of the Shadowhunters - never mind that entering the city without permission is against the Law, and breaking the Law could mean death. To make things worse, she learns that Jace does not want her there, and Simon has been thrown in prison by the Shadowhunters, who are deeply suspicious of a vampire who can withstand sunlight. As Clary uncovers more about her family's past, she finds an ally in mysterious Shadowhunter Sebastian. With Valentine mustering the full force of his power to destroy all Shadowhunters forever, their only chance to defeat him is to fight alongside their eternal enemies. But can Downworlders and Shadowhunters put aside their hatred to work together? While Jace realizes exactly how much he's willing to risk for Clary, can she harness her newfound powers to help save the Glass City - whatever the cost?

‘’You could have had anything else in the world, and you asked for me.’’ She smiled up at him. Filthy as he was, covered in blood and dirt, he was the most beautiful thing she’d ever seen. ‘’But I don’t want anything else in the world.’’

THIS BOOK OMG, THE FEELS, THE THINGS HAPPENING, HOW ON EARTH WHAT?!?!?!?!?! That were my thoughts during this book. This book is even better than City of Ashes, even tho that one was great as well. This book, my heart, I can’t believe all the things happening in this book, I read this book so slow even tho I loved it with all my heart and I think this is gonna be my favorite book in the series, but I still hope it gets better by book. I have all the books now so I can keep on reading without waiting for the orders to arrive! Can’t wait for what Cassandra Clare has in store for me. 

‘’I know,’’ Jace said. ‘’I’m just saying that I think I chose the way I did in part because of you. Since I’ve met you, everything I’ve done has been in part because of you. I can’t untie myself from you Clary - not my heart or my blood or my mind or any part of me. And I don’t want to.’’
