Book Review- City of Bones

     City Of Bones by Cassandra Clare (Book One). This is the first book out of 5 of the Mortal Instruments as well as 3 more books that go along with the same premise called The Internal Devices.
     A movie came out in 2013 based off of this book and was directed by Harald Zwart. I did see the movie before I read the book although I don't think it made much of a difference if I would have read the book 1st.
     I feel as though for the most part the movie followed the book pretty well, well as good as a movie can. I love the casting for the characters, while reading the book I was able to put the characters from the movie into my mind while reading the book and they fit perfectly.
     Overall I think the book alone was wonderfully written and isn't like any other book I have read (granted I haven't read all books). It is filled with action and suspense and has many twists that while reading the book I was still shocked . It does have some romance but I love it because it wasn't at all the "typical love story."

If you love: The Hunger Games, Vampire Diaries, Harry Potter, Inkspell, Maximum Ride, and other similar books then City of Bones is a great read for you!
