Once, when I picked up a book from the local library, the librarian asked to tell her what I thought about the book when I would bring it back. Well, why not write a few lines about all the books I read so everybody could see what I thought about it? I'm often also happy to have friends recommend a certain book or tell me this and that is not really worth reading. I won't comment about the tons of books I have read so far, but about books I read from now on.

Clary Fray is just an ordinary girl, or at least she thinks she is until she learns about daemons, shadowhunters, werewolves, vampires and more such creatures. And shortly after she sees such creatures for the first time, Clary is already deep in trouble. It's not her fault, though, but nevertheless there is no piece of mind and battling some of these creatures is the only way to survive. Piece by piece she learns who she really is, what her mother never told her and why.
This is the first book of the Mortal Instruments trilogy. Right from the beginning the reader dives into an expanded dimension of the world as we know it. There are many groups of species which are not always too friendly with each other. The book is inherently interesting and absorbing. It very much tended to stick to my hands, preventing me from doing much else till I reached the last page. But I can write no more, the second book in the series is right there on my desk and I just can't resist...
