Soon as I finished I had to order book 4, I orginally read book 1 years ago and put it down midway then when Shadow hunters came out I was caught up in that but then I was like the books have to explain further and to my surprise the books were completely different and boom it was like a whole another story unfold and I can't stop reading the series. ❤ ( ) 3.0 Stars for City of Glass. Spoilers possible. Much like the last book, there were a lot of recurring issues with this series and the writing. Even though Jace and Clary learn they are not siblings (at the end of the book), we still are forced to suffer through another awkward books worth of their star-crossed infatuation with one another. As before, they don't actually spend enough time together to develop believable feelings or even know each other. As a romance, the books are weak. This says nothing of the minor romances which are understandably not the focus. The action and climactic events in this book are entertaining. The city of glass as a new destination helped pique my interest in what was happening. In contrast, the writing and particularly the characterizations and the dialog between characters did not improve. Several times it felt as though characters were repeating things they had already said to one another. I also take issue with the death of Max. I don't think the sorrow and anguish that his family and others would feel was accurately portrayed and some of them were left seeming callous in their disregard. Overall, I think the story isn't my problem. It is the finer details of the writing and the characters themselves. 4.5 Spoilers ahead! This is by far my favorite of the first three Mortal Instruments novels! There’s tons of action, solid storyline wrap-ups, and really good dialogue. I enjoyed seeing all the different characters (both old and new) interact and progress throughout the novel. I’m still not a fan of Clare writing two characters who think they’re siblings have a romantic relationship, though. For lack of a better word, it’s just icky. I cringed every time Clary and Jace (before the “you’re not siblings!” revelation) started making out and talking about how “wrong but right” they felt. Um, gross?!? Anyway, other than that, “City of Glass” was heaps of fun! I loved the setting of Alicante; it was a nice switch from NYC and I sincerely hope we get to see more of it sometime in the series. Also, the Lightwood siblings are my favorite in the series right now! I definitely shed a tear when poor little Max died- that was HARSH. :( I can’t wait to see more of Alec and Isabelle- they’re such dynamic and fun characters. Now: on to the Infernal Devices series! ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
