I just finished City of Bones.. and I kinda have mixed feelings. The story-line is very entertaining, but there are sooo many cuss words. Which is why I will have to say goodbye. (Plus the cover is sketchy(; )
Summary from inside book cover:
"When 15 year old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York city, she hardly expects to witness a murder-- much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing -- not even a smear of blood -- to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?
This is Clary's first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. It's also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. Within 24 hours Clary is pulled into Jace's world with a vengeance, when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know..."
To be honest, I didn't really get into the book until the 6th or 7th chapter. Then I was sucked in ;) but I was so disappointed because seriously it cussed sooo much. I don't recommend. Yes it's got an interesting story line, but it's really not worth it to read all the cussing. Not to mention it has some violence.
Rate: PG13/R
lots & lots of cussing
GOOD OR GOODBYE?
GOODBYE
NITTY GRITTY:
City of Bones did not use the F word, however it used just about every other word. The H, D, A, and B words.
I wouldn't read it, and if you do decide you would like to read it, I would recommend only 14/15 and up.
THANKS FOR READING!
