vel629vet 's review for:

City of Bones by Cassandra Clare
4.0
adventurous dark mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated


Would have been 5 RIGHT UNTIL I GOT TO THE END. It felt so much like a soap opera! And it FREAKED ME OUT! But excited to read number 2. 

Update 9/2013: Reread for movie. Movie was bad. Bad writing + bad acting. It was hard to appreciate the book after reading the Infernal Devices in which the writing is just SO much better.

Reread 2022: fast paced and fun. Happy to be back into the shadow hunter world.
