Re: City Of Bones - Cassandra Clare

Post by readingfreak »

This is one of my favorite series. First time readers welcome to the world of supernatural with a twist. A cool, stubborn heroin with a too cool hero. Jace was mostly the main attraction for me after Clary of course. Demon, werewolves, vampires, fairies and shadow hunters all twisted to make a perfect story. The plot is also very interesting at the end of the book you will be very frustrated and cursing Cassandra Clare. I know I was. But the ending of this book is going to make you want to read more.

this book is one of the nicest book I read. It talks about a girl called clary who was a so called "normal girl" in one moment and tossed into the downworld the next second. She meets a very arrogant guy called Jace, and they fell in love and went through lots of obstacles together. My number one book series!

Wonderful book. I love the series and highly recommend it if you like the teen science fiction genre.

This book does have a little bit of everything. Humor, Romance, Action, Fantasy and Supernatural all in one. I loved the City of Bones and I haven't finished the rest of the series yet, but I will soon. :)

The Mortal Instruments series is one of my favourites. I'm currently reading City of Lost Souls. That means there's only one left for me to read though :(

You can read the Bane Chronicles after! Or start the prequel series, The Infernal Devices (pack tissues) :P

Since the beginning I was hooked! Maybe this book is not the best in the series, but it offers a great start to an amazing series. Cassandra Clare created an amazing world, with the best characters (Jace) and some of the best romances.

I loved City Of Bones by Cassandra Clare. It really had some moments where i couldn't put it down but then some times in the book I took a day or two just to finish that part of the book. It had adventure and secrets of certain characters that made the plot interesting.

I love the mortal instruments books honestly they got me through some tough times. I read through them all in about a week. I had never heard of them till one day I was watching YouTube videos and some one had made a TMI playlist so I looked it up.

I absolutely loved this series! I fell in love with the first book right away! Jace was so mean in the first book tho. I didn't start reading these books until after I saw the movie. I definitely would recommend reading these books !! :techie-studyingbrown:

I love this book, the series and it's perqual. The only book I have found that flopped was book 4 of the immoral instruments. But since books 1-3 was the original end point Clare had to slowly carve out a new story for books 4-6 and therefore the flop was in the 4th book when she had to basically restart the story.
