Ok, basically on the whole. here is a short short description of the book and my character description of Clary and Jace in my own words of the first book:) Well:) So forgive me if I get anything wrong;) Basically the first book, City Of Bones came out on March 27th 2007 and well yes as you can see above it is by Cassandra Clare:)

The main characters are Clary and Jace and the slightly less important but STILL important ones are Isabelle, Alec, Magnus, Luke, Valentine and Sebastian - as far as I can remember:) The physical appearances of Clary and Jace are below. XD

CLARY is five feet tall with curly red hair, green eyes, pale skin, and freckles. She is said to look like her mother - who is described as beautiful and small.  She is rather petite and very thin. She will be portrayed by LILY COLLINS in the film adaption of the series. YES YOU RIGHT CORRECTLY:) THE FILM IS COMING OUT SOON:)

JACE has fine wavy dark golden-blond hair and dark gold eyes. He has a slim, muscular build, and is about 5'11". His face is described as being pretty and angular, with a narrow mouth. His eyes were much lighter in City of Bones, Ashes, and Glass; Clary describes his eyes and hair are darker in City of Fallen Angels. Like all other Shadowhunters, he is covered in thin, silver scars from years of applying various magical runes with a stele for battle and healing purposes, as well as permanent runes. It is said that Jace is seventeen years old. Jace is left-handed.  Jace is portrayed by JAMIE CAMPBELL BOWER in the film production of this novel.

*Spoiler alert*

When fifteen-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 twenty-four 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. . . . 


Exotic and gritty, exhilarating and utterly gripping, Cassandra Clare's ferociously entertaining fantasy takes readers on a wild ride that they will never want to end. -> COMPLETELY TRUE! NEVER WANTED IT TO END!

Book 2 - City of Ashes

*BE WARNED - THE FOLLOWING ARE SPOILERSSSSSSS*

Ok now here comes my awesome part:) MY REVIEWING;) (Excuse me if this sucks first time)

Ok basically I think that the Mortal Instruments is SUPERMEGAAWESOMECOOL. 


Especially the whole I didn't know I am a shadowhunter part AND especially the INCEST part! - Which is basically Clary and Jace and the whole I can't date you but I fell in love with you part! *FORBIDDEN LOVE*
