Book Review: City of Glass

Review of City of Bones
Review of City of Ashes

I have realized that this is the first series of books that I have followed from beginning to end. I bought all but the last one on the day of its release, I waited breathlessly through the month of March two years running. I came late to Harry Potter, Lemony Snicket and all the other Stories of Our Time...but I have followed "The Mortal Instruments" since the beginning.

( Review (complete with plot spoilers) )

( ETA: In which Kate's reading habits produce hilarious results )

That said, I am NO END of bitter that I couldn't re-read the first two. I kept forgetting things until just after they happened, and I totally got the time line screwed up in my head, probably because it was two years for me and a month for Clary. But still! Good read.
