City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments, Book 1) by Cassandra Clare


City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments Book 1) by [Clare, Cassandra]

      "When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder - much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing - not even a smear of blood - to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?
      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..."

      This action-packed novel definitely keeps the reader entertained. There are a few instances of crude language, but these are very few and far between. There are also a couple of comments referring to sex, but these are mainly commented in sarcasm, with no further details. The romance was also kept clean, with nothing other than a few passionate kisses. Overall, I found this to be a pretty clean novel and would suggest it for those looking for an adventurous story line. 

Buy it on Amazon.
