While I enjoyed The Infernal Devices‚ it did not live up to the first trilogy for me. It seems as if The Dark Artifices is going to be the same way‚ thoroughly enjoyable but not as good as the original. While my opinion might change as the other novels come out‚ Lady Midnight was a great read‚ but just didn’t hold me in the way that The

City of Bones Made My Bones Rot (CONTAINS SPOILERS!) by: Eeshma Narula No. Just no. The well-known fantasy film‚ The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones is a total disappointment. Harald Zwart took an incredible book filled with emotion‚ adventure‚ and mystery and transformed it into 130 minutes of nothing. Cassandra Clare’s amazing writing and characterization was demolished by the horrible directing and simply not good enough acting. I’m sure Clare went home in tears. The story revolves around
