The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones


The book, the movie, the soundtrack, spoke to me. Such incredibly easy reading.

So I'd finished the whole series of 5 books (the last one still unpublished) in 2 nights when I didn't sleep a wink. There's a certain energy I gain from book-reading and I finished them all feeling un-tired but energetic and full of inspiration. It warms my spirit every time I read a book that teaches me something other than what the book is plainly about. 

I don't care about the trappings of teenage love, but the alternate realities presented by all my favourite books have one thing in common - I love them exceedingly, the beliefs, ideals and societies the books are based on, but they cannot be real. Because if they are, I for one, will definitely die before being able to enjoy it. 

Dystopia is wonderful and horrifying.
