It was okay, it wasn't great in my opinion, I didn't like that Cassandra

make them kiss and then tell us that they are SIBLINGS, and even after that she told us that clary keep thinking him a little bit in a romantic way. And I felt like that revelation was so out of nowhere, maybe it was just me but I feel like it was just for the shock. I also felt so gross with the Magnus insinuation with Alec, like he is a grown ass men and alec is a teenager

Even after that, it wasn't so bad, I didn't got attached with any of the characters but I like the universe that she created.

It wasn't memorable but it was nice for kill time.

Actually a pretty enjoyable read! It was a bit longer than what I usually read and the plot twist was “interesting.” Even though it was a long book, the world building was really well done. An excellent fantasy choice! Clary is kinda dumb and the book leaves a cliffhanger because it’s a series, but that’s really my only critiques.

I was afraid I wouldn't like the City of Bones as everyone's read it like 10 years ago in middle school, but I'm glad I gave it a try — and ended up liking it! It took me a while to get a proper grasp of the world, but once I was in, I could easily devour 100 pages in one sitting. The plot twist in the end was great and unpredictable, though I also hate it because...

I could guess pretty early on that Clary was Valentine's biological daughter, but there's no way Clary and Jace are actually siblings??!! For once when I was actually rooting for the protagonist's love story my hopes are crushed... hopefully not forever and it's just another sick game of Valentine's. Anything as long as Clary doesn't end up with Simon, I really don't like him and the idea of them as a couple even less (sorry Simon but you should stay in the friend zone or even be a rat idc).

can't wait to read the sequel!
