I’m just as obsessed with the shadowhunter world as I was when I started these 10 years ago. My heart is wrecked and I’m counting down the days until book 2.

Chain of Gold
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I've been so scared to pick this up because it´s following the children of the characters from my fave series... I was so scared I would be disappointed, I tried to stay away from spoilers but I already knew some of the characters from Ghosts of the Shadow Market.
As this book has been sitting on my shelves since March I felt like it was time to see what it was about. There were many last names to keep track off at the beginning, but I learned it quickly.
I felt like the first 200 pages or so was like an introduction to the characters, which I found helpful and didn't mind at all. It made the plot much more interesting.
I swear I got a heart attack every time Will Herondale´s name was just mentioned as he is my number one book boo after all, though I did get used to it later on.
This book was exactly what I wanted and I think it couldn't have been better. I can't wait to read the next book, my patience is literally non-existent.

So so good! I love the characters that I got introduced to! I love that I get to follow the children of the families from the infernal devices. Also really enjoyed the romances in this book as well as the lgbtq representation. The major plot was well done that I was so invested in the story and the characters journeys. I really love seeing the characters all grow and I’m excited to see more character growth in Chain of Iron!

Chain of Gold came at such a terrible time in 2020. It's been an incredible reprieve to dive back into the magical Shadowhunter world.
