Let me start by saying somewhere I read reviews that compared these books to Twilight, so there is where my let down lies I'm sure.
This was a fairly entertaining book although it did take me a while to get into it. There wasn't a whole lot of action for demon fighters they did surprisingly little fighting. There were some touching scenes between Jace and Clary but, not the full on love story you get with Twilight.
I was wrapped up in the story line by the time I got to the end. I was not surprised, however to find the twist the plot took. I was invested enough feel compelled to google the series to find out how that twist resloved (I know thats cheating but, I'm an instant gratification kind of girl). I liked it well enough to continue with the series, but I won't be reserving shelf space for it as a keeper.
