This was such an interesting read. Cassandra Clare has grown as a writer since City of Bones. I love her vivid imagery and descriptions—it makes reading her books a feast for the imagination. My favorite part of this book was definitely…

CoLS deserves about 500 stars. Twists and turns, relationships and break-ups...just so much good stuff in here. Absolutely can't wait for Heavenly Fire!

Although still focusing more on relationship issues rather than the more exciting aspect of the series. This book stepped it up a notch from the last one adding some twists and turns.

This novel suffers from middle book syndrome- badly. Most of what occurred here felt like filler- Jace being possessed by Sebastian, Clary unable to consummate her relationship with Jace, Isabelle and Simon dancing around a relationship,…

After the literary trainwreck of City of Fallen Angels, I had no expectations for this book, but my stubbornness kept me from not reading the next installment. I've never been more happy with how annoying I am. City of Lost Souls is just…

Just as good as I expected

City of lost souls is an amazing book. I really liked Clary's plans and I hate how Sebastion treats her so poorly. I don't know how Clary can stand next to her Jace and see him but he isn't himself. All in all this book was great.

As the title clearly states, I have unwittingly lost my soul in this fascinating fifth book of the Mortal Instruments Series. I enjoyed this book far more than the fourth one before it. I would recommend this book to those, as long as they…

The author is good at keeping you enthralled in her story. It's pretty funny how much she uses the word 'incredulous' and its variations.

I thought this book was the best out of all. There were so much suspense, cliff hangers, and shockers that makes you want to keep reading. Overall the disappointments weren't too bad to make me not like not want to read this!

this book was good but at the same time felt like way to much intimate sex scenes. at first it made you really think Sebastian had changed but nope! wanting to sleep w/ your sister when you know shes your sister is just nasty!

I love this series, but this book punched me in the face!! Why, Cassandra Clare, why!?

Clary seems to have become a really shallow character now and I really can't relate to her at all now... I actually kept wanting to skip her parts in the book and just keep reading about Simon, she was so boring and insanely... well, I…
