Hmm lots of romance in the middle bits...well written but waiting for the plot to love forward! Yeah, I know, that's such a guy thing to say :)

Please I can't take Clary commenting how Jace smells like soap one more time! Simon and Isabelle are the only characters I can take right now. And Magnus of course!

Bookbringer I loved the previous books but thought the plot was lost in this one...


David Estes No pun intended right? Lol! City of Lost Plots maybe? I'm just a bit frustrated with how slowly she's moving things along. Good to know I'm not alone!


Steph is: Pageturning578 i have to start the second one over again because I felt like it was moving slowly please I hope they don't all move slow!

You're definately not alone! I felt the same way about this book. I was also a bit tired of reading about maia and Kyle.

I'd say they're all pretty slow, but this one is the slowest!

Haha no, actually I didn't think about "lost". I really hope the last book is better :-)


David Estes Lol :P


Maya Totally agree with you. I felt like this book was a bit slow and had more love, it did annoy me a bit but over all i still liked the book


David Estes Ok cool, I'm hoping it picks up a little till the end :)


message 11: by Jenna-Marie (new)

Jenna-Marie It's not a guy thing to say at all!! I've not read this book but have just finished another that had a similar issue. I nearly stopped reading it because it was just so slushy it was choking me. I'm all for romance, but a good balance of characters, scenery and adventure goes a long way. Too much of the love stuff just makes me want to move on to something else. It must do it for some though!!


David Estes LOL thanks! I tend to be a little on the girly side when it comes to books, but sometimes the romance gets to be too much for me too! I like a nice balance as well :) But thanks for saying that, I'm glad I'm not alone!

Thanks for giving me hope that there are boys out there who actually like romance! Its also refreshing to see a guy who actually reads the same books as me!


David Estes Hehe well thank you! I think there are more guys out there that read similar books than you think, but they don't want to admit it lol! I'm proud to read YA in all genres, there are some really good books! But thank you for saying that :)
