I'm loving that Alec seems more content with his possible feelings toward Magnus and all, but what is it with everyone's obsession about outing Alec?
They don't even act tactfully or be coy about it?
Just boldly say it to his face:
"We know you are gay and hot for Jace, your step-brother?'
Like wth?
I know this is fantasy and all but this is not normal behaviour.

“Take my hands,” Alec said. “And take my strength too. Whatever of it you can use to—to keep yourself going.”
“I thought you had to get back to the ship.”
“I have to fight,” said Alec. “But that’s what you’re doing, isn’t it? You’re part of the fight just as much as the Shadowhunters on the ship—and I know you can take some of my strength, (…)Take it. It’s yours.”

Okay, say whatever you wanna say about the pseudo-incest storyline but this line is hilarious:

"I suppose we have only ourselves to blame, your mother and I; having kept you two apart so long, you never developed the revulsion toward each other that would be more natural between siblings."

"Clary wondered if there were any ugly vampires. Or maybe any fat ones. Maybe they didn't make vampires out of ugly people. Or maybe ugly people just didn't want to live forever."

What the bloody hell?
I knew body shaming was strong with this one after listening to hatred of Isabelle's attractiveness, but this is going a bit too far. I'm so glad I didn't read this when I was a teenager.

Constant scolding the fmc gets starting to get to me. She is a grown woman, she knows how to function without getting yelled at about why her door is unlocked every few pages!
