Hi there! The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones is
probably my new favorite book... Bravo Cassandra Clare, bravo!
When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out
to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a
murder -- much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange
tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin
air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone
else and when there is nothing―not even a smear of blood―to show that a boy has
died. Or was he a boy?
This is Clary's first meeting with the
Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. It's also her
first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and
acts a lot like a jerk. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jace's
world with a vengeance, when her mother disappears and Clary herself is
attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes
like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The
Shadowhunters would like to know...
Exotic and gritty, exhilarating and
utterly gripping, Cassandra Clare's ferociously entertaining fantasy takes
readers on a wild ride that they will never want to end.
I plan on reading
all the books by the time the next one comes out at the end of May, that’s how
much I loved this book!! And PS I broke my own rule: I highlighted my favorite lines, paragraphs and quotes because I wanted to look back and smile at what I found fun and cute! Most of the lines are what Jace said.. Anyway! Now this is a fantasy fiction novel but this topic of
Angels and demons has been something that has interested me all my life. I’ll
be honest now; I did see the movie first. I’m a mega Lily Collins fan and have
been dying to see the movie for her and the hot guys casted around her. I
ordered the movie and this book off Amazon that day. I’m from New York, so
reading books about here always catch my attention first, which I really liked
about it! The character and relationship development was fantastic and I fell
in love with several people. The story is compelling and a page-turner which
was great for me. I enjoy page-turners especially when they’re long like this
book. I feel like I completely got my money’s worth! I really cannot wait to
read the second one and give you guys that review!
I AM IN LOVE WITH
JACE. Jace is a witty and sexy character who just completely draws you in. He jokes with Clary
to no end but also lets her get to know the real Jace. I really thoroughly
enjoyed his personality; Clare captured my dream boy! He’s got stunning golden
eyes and blonde hair; I can picture Jamie Campbell Bower immensely and I’m so
glad he got the role. I also really liked Clary, she didn’t put up with Jace’s
bull most of the time and I appreciated how brave and cool she was. She was
15/16 in this novel, which I thought was a little young, then I thought of my brother,
who’s turning 16 in October, and decided for a series of 6 books age 15 is a
rather great place to start!
The supporting
characters were also amazing. I can’t wait to see what happens with Alec no
spoilers and I also loved Isabelle and Simon, I hope to see something
happen with them. Also I enjoyed the full descriptions of each character, Clare
does an excellent job giving the reader a visual.
Smart, witty,
believable, and romantic.
Rating: 10/10 :D
I drank iced chai
most of this book. I got my copy off Amazon,
It’s also available
at Barnes and Noble, iBooks, and BookDepository.
