Review: This book was a definite page turner! I read this book in early December and loved it. City Of Bones was fun and mystical. It is part romance and part action. Clary and Jace were my favorite characters. All the characters have depth and very different personalities. It was great overall

.

I recommend this book if you like romance, demons, action, vampires, werewolves, faeries, and young adult novels.
