City Of Bones - Cassandra Clare


The first book in The Mortal Instruments trilogy makes you fall in love with the characters. It's told as if the world as we know it has a whole other dark side that is unseen to the human eye, that is, unless you are a shadowhunter. Vampires and werewolves, faeries and demons, they once lived in fragile peace until Valentine takes control over the demons to wreck havoc on everyone. The shadowhunters, those decendants of the few who drank from the angels cup, are the only ones capable of fighting these dark forces with the help of runes carved into their skin. Clary, who lives alone with her mother in a single apartment finds everything shaken when her apartment is torn up and her mother missing. Until then she believed her world to be normal and vampires to be fantasy. She begins seeing things that 'aren't there' and finds out just how much of her past has been hidden from her, and that she is a very strong shadowhunter. ~ Caitlyn W.
