My New Love

I absolutely love the Mortal Instruments Series by: Cassandra Clare.

I'm on the third book which is the City of Glass.

I would highly encourage this series.

What's it about?
1st Book's Description (The City of Bones):

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.

Why is it amazing?

In my opinion the characters are more important than anything. More important than the plot, setting, or writing style. The characters make the story. Clare nailed it when it came to the characters. I love the dialogue and how the characters interact with each other. 

They always have something snappy to say at the other. It is amazing how they get anything done in the books so far. 

I'll right an updated version of this review when I finish all the books. So far, so good. 

Did you hear, it's a movie too?


The movie wasn't the best but the dialogue from the book was pretty much the same which I loved. The ity of Bones didn't get much praise but it wasn't a complete fail. Despite the critics, rumors has spread that the second book the City of Ashes is set in pre-production. They're changing up a lot of things to make it a really big success. I hope the 2nd movie is spot on like the Catching Fire Adaption. 

Here's the trailer:
