City of Bones
The Mortal Instruments Book One
By Cassandra Clare
Clary Fray and her best friend Simon
head out to the all ages club, Pandemonium in New York City. On this outing
Clary runs into three tattooed teenagers wielding strange weapons that murder a
boy, but when his body disappears into thin air Clary’s mind soon goes from
calling the police to making sure she makes it out alive. This is only the beginning
of how Clary’s world is completely shattered in the blink of the eye. The next
day she is being obstinate towards her mother after being unjustly grounded
when a frantic phone call from her mother takes her to her ram shackled apartment
to find her mother gone and a demon waiting for her. With the help of the three
teen warriors known as the Shadowhunters and her best friend Simon she will do
anything she can to save her mother.
I picked this book up through audible
not too long ago thinking it sounded interesting and young adult romances are
always a quick and fun read for me. What I had not anticipated was that this
novel would blow me out of the water, Not only do you have a fascinating story
line but then Cassandra Clare throws in one twist after another until you are
left shocked and thoroughly anticipating the next installment of this
series. To add into the fun as you weave
your way through the story line this novel has some of the best action scenes I
have come across and the author is able to fully bring to life each instance almost
making you flinch as you follow along. This was definitely a remarkable book though
there was a moment when I cringed and the “eww” factor went up a few notches,
but in the end it added to the fun of the book.
