Small confession to make; after much research on amazon.com (love & trust the feedback comments) I put this next book series on my 'mother's day' list. But after I devoured 'crescendo' in a day and a half, I started to go through some intense reading withdrawal symptoms: fidgety hands, non stop pacing and severe crankiness.
The grumpy prince seeing my acute dismay offered me an early 'md' gift. So I actually started reading this series about a week ago. What series you ask? It's another 'trilogy' called The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare (a 'trilogy' but there is a book four 'city of fallen angels' released in April). To be honest it's a little different than I'm used to.
Book one 'City of Bones' had new concepts for me to wrap my mind around. This made it a slow read for me, but I enjoyed that for a change. I was able to put the book down to do things like...respond to a question, wash myself, eat a meal, or take care of the musketeers. But that slow build up turned into a wild, crazy, funny (lots of laughs) and intense ride filled with some not so obvious surprises.
I'm currently half way through book two 'City of Ashes' and the wild joyride continues!
