Still on My Mind #6
Oh dang! I almost forgot about my Still on My Mind post today!!
So for this week I'm going to do...
Cassandra Clare's Mortal Instrument Series!
Because it's a series, and because I loved each one of them SOOOOO much, it is MUCH too difficult to just choose one! So instead, I am doing all of them! Okay, except for the newest one City of Lost Souls because I haven't had the chance to read that one quite yet.
But here's the description from Goodreads:

But here's the description from Goodreads:
The
Shadowhunters—touched by angels and charged with protecting
innocents—battle demons and other evil in the bestselling Mortal
Instruments series.
City of Bones
When 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 odd markings. This is Clary’s
first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the
earth of demons—and keeping the odd werewolves and vampires in line.
It’s also her first meeting with gorgeous, golden-haired Jace. 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 an ordinary mundane like Clary? And
how did she suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to
know. . . .
City of Ashes
Clary Fray just wishes that her life would go back to normal. But
what’s normal when you’re a demon-slaying Shadowhunter, your mother is
in a magically induced coma, and you can suddenly see Downworlders like
werewolves, vampires, and faeries? Clary would love to spend more time
with her best friend, Simon. But the Shadowhunters won’t let her
go—especially handsome, infuriating Jace. Clary’s only chance to help
her mother is to track down rogue Shadowhunter Valentine, who is
probably insane, certainly evil—and also Jace’s father. When the second
of the Mortal Instruments is stolen, the terrifying Inquisitor suspects
Jace. Could Jace really be willing to betray everything he believes in
to help his father?
City of Glass
To save her mother’s life, Clary travels to the City of Glass,
the ancestral home of the Shadowhunters—never mind that by doing so she
is breaking the Law, which could mean death. Even worse, Jace does not
want her there, and Simon has been thrown in prison by Shadowhunters who
are deeply suspicious of a vampire who can withstand sunlight. Luckily,
Clary finds an ally in the mysterious Sebastian, who holds a strange
attraction for her. As Valentine musters a demon army, can Downworlders
and Shadowhunters put aside their ancient hatred and work together? And
can Clary harness her newfound powers to help save them all—whatever the
cost?
City of Fallen Angels
The Mortal War is over, and Clary is back in New York, excited
about all the possibilities before her. She's training to become a
Shadowhunter and to use her unique power. Downworlders and Shadowhunters
are at peace at last. And—most importantly of all—she can finally call
Jace her boyfriend. But nothing comes without a price. Someone is
murdering Shadowhunters, provoking tensions that could lead to a second,
bloody war. Clary's best friend, Simon, can't help her. Everywhere he
turns, someone wants him on their side—along with the power of the curse
that's wrecking his life. Not to mention that he's dating two
beautiful, dangerous girls—neither of whom knows about the other. When
Jace begins to pull away from her without explaining why, Clary is
forced to delve into the heart of a mystery whose solution reveals her
worst nightmare: She herself has set in motion a terrible chain of
events that could lead to her losing everything she loves. Even Jace.
I first began reading this series last Spring I believe, and instantly fell in love! It's AMAZING! I 100% recommend it!
