A review by notsonya
City of Bones by Cassandra Clare

3.0

i strongly believe cassandra clare meant to keep going w the incest plotline but didn’t because of the backlash. ending it on that note is kinda crazy though.

anyway, here are my favourite quotes ‘cause this book is sooo 2007:

“clary let out a breath she hadn’t realized she’d been holding.”

“i’m not like other guys.”

“she thought of isabelle’s tiny waist and suddenly felt gigantic.”

“OTAKU WENCH.”

“she would have thought there would be something feminine about a boy wearing a ring, but there wasn’t.”

“she’d never understood why some girls felt the need to smell like dessert.”

“clary wondered if there were any ugly vampires, or maybe any fat ones. maybe they didn’t make vampires out of ugly people. or maybe ugly people just didn’t want to live forever.”

“there are demons in the white house?”

“she had forgotten about simon completely.”

“simon. she had forgotten he was outside, had almost forgotten he existed.”

“i always wanted a brother.”
