I think I have it coming from the library. I'll give it a shot.
I actually started it yesterday and am already over 100 pages in.
I'd like to read it with the group as well.
I'm in, too ^^
i will. was going to re read early books anyway from memory only read to book five.
Currently reading it. The translated edition I'm reading is so bad. The first 3-4 chapters are so littered with inconsistencies and malformed sentences to become almost unreadable; then it fortunately gets a bit better (or rather, for all I know it might be as full of bullshit as before, but at least it isn't as glaringly obvious as hair changing color or people having arms full of tattoos where there shouldn't be any).For the next books I'll have to try to get my hands on an English version. Sorry for the rant but these things make me really mad!
80% done with City of Fallen Angels! I'll probably finish it today, it's just 100 pages ^^I'm travelling to Moscow on the 28th and I'd like to finish the series before then, good luck all!

That's awful, Giulia!
Nothing worse than a bad translation or a bad narrator. Ruins the book :(
I'm about 60% into City of Bones, listening on audiobook. The narrator is ok, but she does kind of a bad British (I think) accent for certain characters... haha
Finished CoFA! I think I'll start CoLS tomorrow though, really tired

Sorry I missed your message. That’s just terrible, Giulia.
I will try to get to this one, since we are to be snowed and/or iced in this weekend. I have two books with similar titles out from the library, so I need to check to make sure I'm reading this group book!
Almost finished with this one; can someone tell me if the story comes to an end with this book, or does one have to read this entire series to get a conclusion?

Books 4-6 are just add ins, but I am on the fifth book, City of Lost Souls, and it's absolutely wonderful! I'm two-thirds through and would definitely recommend that you'd keep reading.

This is Clary's first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. It's also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jace's world with a vengeance when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know...
