City of Bones and City of Ashes are the first two books in the Mortal Instruments series. This is another one of those young adult series that started to become movie series, but it has yet to make it past the first book. Of course the movie is what prompted me to read it. Clary Fray has lived a sheltered life with her mother. But after attending a party at a local club she finds out that there are a lot of monsters in the world, literally. After her mother goes missing and she gets attacked by a demon, she is at a loss of what to do. Thankfully for her the demon attack attracted the attention of an institution of demon hunters who suggest that she might be like them. Despite how wild her life has become it is only the beginning.
So far this series is holding up well and has avoided some of the cheesiness and pitfalls that I tend to find in young adult books. I hope this series stays good for the rest of the books
