Others: Overwhelmingly positiveTo save her mother's life, Clary must travel to the City of Glass, the ancestral home of the Shadowhunters -- never mind that enter-ing the city without permission is against the Law, and breaking the Law could mean death. To make things worse, she learns that Jace does not want her there, and Simon has been thrown in prison by the Shadowhunters, who are deeply suspicious of a vampire who can withstand sunlight. As Clary uncovers more about her family's past, she finds an ally in mysterious Shadow-hunter Sebastian. With Valentine mustering the full force of his power to destroy all Shadow-hunters forever, their only chance to defeat him is to fight alongside their eternal enemies. But can Downworlders and Shadowhunters put aside their hatred to work together? While Jace realizes exactly how much he's willing to risk for Clary, can she harness her newfound powers to help save the Glass City -- whatever the cost? Love is a mortal sin and the secrets of the past prove deadly as Clary and Jace face down Valentine in the final installment of the New York Times bestselling trilogy The Mortal Instruments.

Others: Leaning positiveAbout three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him -- and I didn't know how dominant that part might be -- that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him. When Isabella Swan moves to the gloomy town of Forks and meets the mysterious, alluring Edward Cullen, her life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. With his porcelain skin, golden eyes, mesmerizing voice, and supernatural gifts, Edward is both irresistible and impenetrable. Up until now, he has managed to keep his true identity hidden, but Bella is determined to uncover his dark secret. What Bella doesn't realize is the closer she gets to him, the more she is putting herself and those around her at risk. And, it might be too late to turn back. Deeply seductive and extraordinarily suspenseful, Twilight will have listeners riveted right until the end. -- Container. Bella Swan and Edward Cullen, a pair of star-crossed lovers whose forbidden relationship ripens against the backdrop of small-town suspicion and a mysterious coven of vampires.

Others: Mostly negativeThe House of Night series is set in a world very much like our own, except in 16-year-old Zoey Redbird's world, vampyres have always existed. In this first book in the series, Zoey enters the House of Night, a school where, after having undergone the Change, she will train to become an adult vampire—that is, if she makes it through the Change. Not all of those who are chosen do. It's tough to begin a new life, away from her parents and friends, and on top of that, Zoey finds she is no average fledgling. She has been Marked as special by the vampyre Goddess, Nyx. But she is not the only fledgling at the House of Night with special powers. When she discovers that the leader of the Dark Daughters, the school's most elite club, is misusing her Goddess-given gifts, Zoey must look deep within herself for the courage to embrace her destiny—with a little help from her new vampyre friends.

MixedI have to put the Mortal Instrument series in ahead of its time. ... Is it problematic? Absolutely. Was it also iconic and ahead of its time? Yes.
Review 1 of 3
Mixedthen we have the Mortal Instruments which I'm going to put in okay I actually feel like The Mortal Instruments is by far the weakest and least interesting of her series to date
Review 1 of 4
Not a fanI read City of Bones. I read that entire trilogy back when I thought it was only a trilogy, and oh, boy, I hated it. Oh, I hated it.
Mixedi didn't like it enough to want to continue the series and since we're already at book 562 in the series i just don't feel like catching up but i do remember enjoying this it was you know just scrambled eggs on toast
Loved iti remember reading that one getting to the end being so frustrated and then reading the rest of the series as well i think the first book still would give it 5 out of 5 stars

Review 1 of 2
MixedCity of Bones honestly the what is the Mortal Instruments series I don't think probably has aged well just cuz I know that there's things that Cassandra Clare has gone back and like had to clarify birth control stuff runes you know mm- I'm just gonna go with it's okay
Loved itI have a deep love for this and just putting this series as a whole, we got to put it at least elite because I love The Shadow Hunters Chronicles and it deserves this at least coming from me.
