I finished The Mortal Instruments series City of Angels (book 4) by Cassandra Clare. Wow, what can I say at this point?? I read the Mortal Instruments series in a week, that's 4 books (so far). That is a new record for me! Well I absolutely loved it! There weren't really anything bad to say about it. To be honest though, the end of the 3rd book would have been the perfect ending to the whole series. And at first I was skeptical about reading it. Even Stephanie Meyer (author of Twilight) loved th I finished The Mortal Instruments series City of Angels (book 4) by Cassandra Clare. Wow, what can I say at this point??

To be honest though, the end of the 3rd book would have been the perfect ending to the whole series. And at first I was skeptical about reading it. Even Stephanie Meyer (author of Twilight) loved this series. But I know why Cassie wanted to add on to the story. Though for some, reading more than 3 or 4 books is a lot and you feel like it keeps dragging on. I didn't feel that way at all. In fact, I still wanted more. I fell in love with the characters from the start. Each of them developed so nicely through each book making you feel they were real. I would go to bed at 3 am after reading a few hundred pages every night and then dream about them. Especially Jace, one of the main characters who is unbelievably sexy and charming. Some were crazy dreams and some were dreams I never wanted to wake up from! But seriously, I highly recommend these books to anyone with imagination. They will not disappoint you! Well okay, some parts are sad or mind boggling but it will keep you turning the pages. In my opinion, this series is much better than Twilight! So that says alot (at least to the hardcore Twilighters out there)!

The main character Clary Fray gets thrown into a world full of downworlders, vampires, warlocks, demons, werewolves and faeries. She is an ordinary teenager until she witnesses a murder at a club. Then all Hell breaks loose. With twists and turns of events, her life is changed forever.Then she meets Jace Wayland a gorgeous and charming shadowhunter with secrets of his own. Can he save her from the scary unknown? You will just
have to read it. Also you will meet Isabelle, Alec, Magnus, Jocelyn, Luke, Simon and so many other awesome characters and share in their magical world and the fight between good and evil.

The worst part about this book is that I have to wait a whole year for the 5th book and there is a cliffhanger that will make you mad!!! But it is so worth the read! I promise!!! If anyone read or has read this, I'd love to know your take on the series! The books are kind of expensive I will admit, but I felt they were well worth the money.

Also, Cassandra Clare wrote a series called The Infernal Devices, which I haven't read yet but heard from alot of people they are good too. They are the prequel to The Mortal Instruments series and have some of the same characters. So I will be reading that soon as well.

Major Spoilers from books 1-3 and Minor from 4

Simon being front and center in this book is wonderful.It adds such depth to his character and you get to see him a lot throw his own eyes.Usually you just see him throw Clary's.I have always wanted to see more of Simon trying to adjust to being a vampire and learning to live with the Mark of Cain.In this book you see that and I feel for him in his struggle and just want to give him a big hug.

Clary and Jace are finally together and it's wonderful to ...more

My reread of The Mortal Instruments, in preparation for the new television adaptation Shadowhunters, continues with City of Fallen Angels. Serving as the fourth book in the expanded series, we see our favorite Shadowhunters and Downworlders return in a new mystery set a brief time after the events of City of Glass. It is also the weakest book of the series ...more

Didn't think it was as great as the rest of the books. Started out as a "normal teenage drama" kind of book for me but it picked up at the end eventually. ...more
