A review by mjvwilbur
City of Bones by Cassandra Clare

4.0

Clary believes she is a normal teenager until one night when she's at a club with her best friend Simon, she witnesses a murder that no one else could even see. Soon after that, her mother is abducted and Clary learns that she is Shadowhunter. She quickly realizes that she has been lied to for much of her life. Of course a love interest is introduced, but there are some things about Jace that neither of them know about. Clary finds herself being apart of something much bigger than her missing mother.
I quickly fell in love with this series! It reminds me Harry Potter, but older characters and more love interest. I became attached to these characters so I continued reading to find out what happens to them. Sometimes it gets a bit confusing, but overall the plot was very interesting. Personally, I'm not a big fan of all the lovey-dovey feelings, but there isn't too much that it's unbearable.
