Review: City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare

Goodreads Summary:
The Mortal War is over, and Clary Fray is back home in New York, excited about all the possibilities before her. She's training to become a Shadowhunter and to use her unique power. Her mother is getting married to the love of her life. Downworlders and Shadowhunters are at peace at last. And—most important of all—Clary can finally call Jace her boyfriend.

But nothing comes without a price.

Someone is murdering the Shadowhunters who used to be in Valentine’s Circle, provoking tensions between Downworlders and Shadowhunters that could lead to a second bloody war.
Clary’s best friend, Simon, can’t help her. His mother just found out he’s a vampire and now he’s homeless. Everywhere he turns, someone wants him on their side—along with the power of the curse wrecking his life. And they’re willing to do anything to get what they want. At the same time he’s dating two beautiful, dangerous girls—neither of whom knows about the other.

When Jace begins to pull away from Clary without explaining why, she is forced to delve into the heart of a mystery whose solution reveals her worst nightmare: She herself has set in motion a terrible chain of events that could lead to her losing everything she loves. Even Jace.

Love. Blood. Betrayal. Revenge. The stakes are higher than ever in City of Fallen Angels.


My Review:
I didn't discover The Mortal Instruments series untill a few months ago but from the first book, I've been hooked.

This is the fourth book in The Mortal Instruments Series and it picks up a few weeks on from the ending of book three.

I really liked how the story followed Jace and Simon more, instead of just focusing on Clary. I love Clary as a character but it's refreshing to follow the other characters around a bit more.

The storylines are as good as ever in City of Fallen Angels. There are many twists and turns to be found and of course, a mega cliffhanger at the end that leaves you begging to read the next book, City of Lost Souls, which unfortunatily isn't available until May next year!
