My Thoughts

I’ve had a lot of people recommend this trilogy to me. I started reading CITY OF BONES on Saturday morning and I’ve been reading it non-stop for the past two days. I couldn’t put it down. Hopefully, the rest of the trilogy is just as good.

The story was very suspenseful. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. I’m actually still on the edge of my seat because there was a twist at the end and I’m dying to know whether it’s true because it will affect so much in the series. I really want to start reading CITY OF ASHES, but I’m afraid I won’t go to bed tonight if I start reading now.

Update: When I read this for a third time, I listened to the audiobook and really enjoyed it. I thought Mae Whitman (her?) did an amazing job with each of the characters.
