Mirsada (miri22) | 219 comments Hey everyone! Join Vicki and I in reading the whole TMI series starting with City of Bones by Cassandra Clare! This is to get us prepared for her last book in the series City of Heavenly Fire, coming out May 27, 2014. Again feel free to join us=]

Summery for City of Bones:

When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder -- much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing―not even a smear of blood―to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?

This is Clary's first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. It's also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jace's world with a vengeance, when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know...

Exotic and gritty, exhilarating and utterly gripping, Cassandra Clare's ferociously entertaining fantasy takes readers on a wild ride that they will never want to end.

message 18: by Leya (new)

Leya (leyasofpaint) | 114 comments Hi, can I join you :)?


message 19: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Leya, we'd love to have you! :o)


message 20: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments The one reason I hated the movie was that one line that Hodge said that spoiled everything.


message 21: by Mirsada (new)

Mirsada (miri22) | 219 comments I thought the movie was okay but I do agree with you on that Maddison. I think they did that mainly for the people that went to watch the movie but have not read the books. Yeah they should have kept that out and make it more mysterious.

Leya and Tori, welcome! =]


message 22: by Jessy (new)

Jessy (jessycfischer) I think I will join you on this series. I have been wanting to read these, but have not had the chance. Saw the movie and loved it but since had not read the books could not compare.


message 23: by Mirsada (new)

Mirsada (miri22) | 219 comments Welcome Jessy!


message 24: by Emma (new)

message 25: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Jessy, good to have you!

Emma, we start this one on April 23. We have the entire series planned, so hopefully you can join for all of it.

I've never read any of the books nor seen the movie. I have NO idea what it's about to be honest. LOL


message 26: by Leya (new)

Leya (leyasofpaint) | 114 comments @Vicki don't worry, you're not the only one :D! I read the first three books ages ago. I also haven't seen the movie...I didn't really like the look of it.
Have you read The Infernal Devices trilogy :)?


message 27: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments No I haven't.


message 28: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments What's the schedule?


message 29: by Mirsada (new)

Mirsada (miri22) | 219 comments Hey Maddison we start April 23 with the first book. The rest of the books follow every week one. So the next one is on April 30 (coa), may 7(cog), may 14(cofa), may 21(cols), and the last one is may 28..or whenever everyone can get the book(cohf)


message 30: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments Ah awesome! Don't know if I can read a book in a week considering all of the other books I'm reading haha but I'll try. Good thing I own the whole series and I'm buying CoHF asap.

message 37: by Trinity (new)

Trinity I well job you guys when you get to book 3! :)


message 38: by Keara (new)

Keara (kearachristine) | 230 comments I'm doing a read-a-thon on Tumblr starting on Apr 23 so this will be perfect! I think a week per book is reasonable, and gives me enough time to obtain copies as I only own the first book. :D Hopefully I can keep up with you guys! I'm excited. ^_^


message 39: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments I probably won't be able to read this book yet. I'm sorry!


message 40: by Molly (new)

Molly (mollymeaker) I'll be joining. I have already read it but I want to re-read the series in preparation for City of Heavenly Fire.
(and it's good that I have the first three books on hand since we'll be reading them only one week apart.) :)


message 41: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments I am backed up on my buddy reads, but I am still excited to start this series. I don't know if I can do a book a week at this rate but I'll do my best to stay on top of it.
