I just finished reading Clockwork Princess

So I just finished Clockwork Princess, and for anyone who's reading it right now or hasn't read it yet, the epilouge is heart-wrenching. I think the last time a book made me cry was the first time I read Allegiant. One thing I've learned from reading the shadowhunters chronicles and from reading Percy Jackson, and heck, even from reading Harry Potter, is that authors are all complete assholes. Excuse my language >w<. But I mean, they have to be. Some characters just have to be killed off. And it makes the authors assholes, sure, but sometimes it has to happen. Also, demon pox. Where my shadowhunter fam at????
