I'm a bit disappointed because Elwood and Kaiser didn't make out tbh haha 
It was very entertaining, has a lot of fanfic vibes in my opinion (not complaining). It seems like another book would be released in the future, so I'll be looking forward to it to better rate this saga.

Best BL ever honestly. The title may it seem like a silly story but it's very enjoyable and wholesome !!!

I think I would've like the book more if the third part was different tbh 😔 it's a shame because I really liked the trilogy and I was excited to read this book.

Un poemario muy interesante donde se reflexiona sobre los desperdicios y qué significa la palabra basura, a qué ámbitos la relacionamos y cómo está presente en todes nosotres.

Siento que el libro ha querido decir mucho pero no ha acabado de decir nada. Lo he acabado y estoy igual que cuando lo empecé. No siento que haya mucho salvable en él, aunque tampoco puedo decir que sea un libro horrible. Tal vez solo sea insulso.

I think this is the perfect book and saga to read and be obsessed with as a teenager. It gives me the ick with certain phrases, but I think that's related to the time it was written. The book's entertaining and it gives the reader the few information they need to get invested in the story.

The end of the book, I think it's very interesting how it reveals the nature of Clary's and Jace's relationship. I haven't read any YA novel at this book's time that made such a plot twist. I found it very shocking honestly.
