To be honest, I 'm not a sentimental person, not much can make me cry, but by the end of this book, my cheeks are wet with hot tears. Cassie has such beautiful and captivating writings that The Clockwork Prince brought out all the feelings and emotions I never thought existed in me. I simply cannot dismiss it as just another piece of silly and ridiculous YA literature, because it is anything but. The romance in this book is unlike any other YA romance I've ever read. You are most likely to find yourself helplessly lost in the mysterious world Cassandra has created. TID has proved to be better than TMI if that's even possible. Despite willing myself not to like it then, I am completely in love with it now. I can't believe a year ago I was extremely reluctant to start this series! I didn't think TID could ever reach the excitement of TMI, and I simply didn't want to like the characters.
