The plot of City of Fallen Angels by pennenickel---Official review (posted April 14, 2011):An Open Letter to Cassandra Clare:Dear Ms Clare,You're not Joss Whedon. You'll never be Joss Whedon and/or J.K. Rowling, so do yourself (and everyone else) a favor: stop trying. Yours Truly, Someone Who Deserves Their Money Back (A.K.A. Everyone Who Bought a Copy of City of Fallen Angels)P.S. What were you thinking?P.P.S. No seriously, what were you thinking when you decided to revive this series? Were

Seriously Clare? Serious-freakin'-ly?1.) Why does everyone have to fall in love? Or in most cases--get angry with each other, fight and then fall in love again.2.) I'm so sick of sulking Jace. No--I'm so flippin' sick of Jace and Clary. All they do is mope, make-out, mope again and profess their love for each other. Talk about beating a dead horse. Plus it's boring.3). Honestly, the ending didn't shock me. Sorry.4.) Is it me, or did the editing suck?5.) What's up with all the blood? I mean, like...

Ahhh I did it again. This is Heather by Conan Gray (hate this as much as you want but don't ever insult Conan infront of me or...🔪🔪)🚫SPOILER ALERT🚫 I still remember when Jace was Clary's brother, he still did kiss herSo don't expect something better from these twoOnly if they knew how much everyone says ewwAs soon as they say Their linesThey might be a cause of our sore eyesBetter is Kaz taking out the bad man's eyeThey'll be the cause of death of mineWhy would Jace ever love her?She's not eve...

One down, two more Mortal Instruments to go.*Shout out to the Loudoun County library for carrying the kindle version so I don't have to lug around these honking big hardcovers. You're the real hero here.

Dear CC, What is wrong with you?I suppose it isn't really fair. After all, I did come into this book expecting to dislike it. I did have warnings that it was bad, and I did plan on heeding them. But, alas, I succumbed to the anxiety and curiosity that lurked in the back of my mind when I glanced at the pdf on my desktop.And then it began.Between the contrived Jace/Clary angst("OMG, joo will leaves me!" "I will neva leaves joo!" "No, but joo will leaves me!" "I will neva leaves joo!" and repeat...

Right after I finished this book, I had a bit of an accident. I was running with a pair of lightsabers when I tripped and fell and accidentally sliced the entire book to shreds!! Maybe it's not a good idea to run with lightsabers...City of Fallen Angels is amazing - Oh wait, that was weird, my keyboard cut me off. This is some sort of conspiracy isn't it? Like the way that certain unnamed sites sometimes don't like to publish non-glowing reviews. I never write those. *angelic smile* Oh, did that...

full video review / discussion can be found here: https://youtu.be/DH542vupm0g(3.5) I enjoyed this, but it just didn't wow me. I also think it struggled finding it's footing after an epic book like city of glass, but I do realize that I should consider this last portion of the series to be it's own trilogy, since that's what Cassandra Clare originally had in mind. I'm glad that I decided to re-read this before continuing on with the series, because I remembered basically nothing from this book a...

As human society evolves, so do its methods of tortureLet me start off this review with a small confession. I liked The Mortal Instruments. Yes, it was cheesy, it was derivative, and it was an embarrassment to good literature everywhere, but it gave me a couple of afternoons’ worth of guilty pleasure, and I was satisfied. I enjoyed the fast-paced action and the triumph of true love, and I was happy to leave Jace and Clary to enjoy the fruits of their labour in happily-ever-after land. But th

I ahh, think that I....I don’t know....I literally just finished this book and I’m at a loss of words to describe it. Was it brilliant? Yes! Was it fantastic? Yes! Was it worth the wait? Yes, yes, yes....lord yes! I feel like I’ve been waiting for this book an entire lifetime. Yes, that may seem weird, but that’s how I feel. There have been waits for books that I thought would kill me-Richelle Mead's Last Sacrifice being a big one- but none like this. I was happy and satisfied when City of Glass...

Le sigh. Or more like le fuck, am I right? Who the hell is this? Who is she? What happened to her? Alas, I've stopped caring, and my skin looks better already.

**3.5-stars rounded up**Even though I wasn't as enamored with this 4th-installment of Cassie Clare's Mortal Instruments series as I was with the earlier books, I still really enjoyed it.Please note, since City of Fallen Angels is the fourth book in a series, there will be minor spoilers within this review. Assuming pretty much the entire world has read it, I will not be hiding them.Following the events of City of Glass, our group has returned to New York City. Simon has now been a vampire for ab...

3 Everybody hurts Stars SpoilersThis one wasn't as good for me as the others. Jace and Clary had a ton of drama going on and where pretty much apart the whole book. Which I didn't like. They can't catch a break to save their lives. Simon was dating two girls at the same time and I didn't like that. Simon was sweet the last 3 books now in this book he does douchebag things like dating two girls. That is not like Simon! Alec and Magnus had a big fight over Magnus's past and the fact that he wi...
