Followed in the footsteps of the first book. I'll probably read the third book too, since this was originally meant to be a trilogy, but I think that'll be it for me. It seems obvious at this point that good will prevail and the Big Relationship Issue will be magically solved, because this is, after...

To me, the second book of the bunch is always the one that makes it or break it for the entire series. Unless, of course you didn’t like the first one then there’s not much motivation to read the 2nd one. City of Ashes started off early in the book introducing a new character, Maia the werewolf. If ...

City of Ashes is the weakest installment in Cassandra Clare’s Mortal Instruments Trilogy,* and that’s saying something. I’m not giving it one star, because I did rush through it in some enjoyment, but as discussed in my previous review of City of Bones, it was enjoyment based mostly on seeing what n...

I enjoyed the plot and storyline in this installment very much. I did have a little difficulty with the "feelings" between Jace and Clary, but was rather pleased with how it was handled. I thought the final twist in this one was very exciting. I can't help but wonder about Jace and his mysterious sc...

I liked it so much I'm doing my college Senior literature project of the class structures of the first three books! How cool is that? I really enjoyed the whole book, minus a the Simon romance. Even with it, I enjoyed the book far more than City of Bones. Wanna know more? Check out my blog post! ...

I gave this series a shot, but after 2 books of Clary's ridiculousness, I'm done. I can't deal with Clary being in love with her brother. At the end of the book [spoiler] Simon breaks up with her because he wants to be with someone who actually loves him back, so what does she do? She runs to Jace...

Another success for Cassandra Clare! I am thoroughly enjoying the continuing story and am sure I'm going to feel sad and empty when I finish City of Glass - it'll be a long wait until Clockwork Angel's sequel comes out. I love the story line of Clary and Jace (but especially Clary) being extra speci...

This series is just ok, to me. I think I'm having trouble connecting to this story because I don't feel anything for the characters. I just don't like any of them. I will really try to continue on with the series, but it's frustrating that I'm just not getting the same feel for it that so many other...

I said that I would continue my research into Cassandra Claire, and I said I would flip through this book again to decide what I thought of it . . . and I did both. It gave me a migraine and broke my faith in humanity all over again, but I did it. I don't change 5-star reviews to 1-star reviews on...
