The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones by Cassandra Clare


Clary Fray grew up knowing a normal life, knowing nothing of her "dead" father and nothing of her mother's past. Clary's life changes one night at a club where she runs into three mysterious people, Jace, Isabelle and Alec, who slay someone right in front of her eyes. But why can no one else can see them, but her? Has she gone crazy? One of the people she met that night, the handsome character named Jace, finds her again and shows and tells her things she's never imagined. Things like demons, vampires, werewolves, fearies and more actually exist. She soon learns that she is a Shadowhunter just like Jace, Isabelle and Alec, who hold the duty of slaying demons to protect man kind. But demons aren't her only problem. Her best friend gets kidnapped by vampires, her mom is missing, her home has been invaded by unknown creatures, she has been attacked more than once, and it turns out that her father isn't dead after all. Is he the one behind it all? And why?

I would recommend this book to anyone that likes to read about anything mythical. Cassandra Clare keeps the reader on the edge and keeps them guessing. She does a great job in describing the make believe things she writes about. You will fall in love with her characters and this book entirely.
