City of Lost Souls

 Book 5 of The Mortal Instruments was released yesterday. "City of Lost Souls", by Cassandra Clare, was ready to go on my nook and waiting for my slightest touch to download last night. I forgot about it until just right before bed and ended up staying up until about 11:00pm reading. The book is already getting 4.5 stars...who in the world has already read it...obviously someone without children. MINE in particular were up all night long...taking turns waking up...waking the other up and finally going back to sleep just so we could get a mini "nap" before another woke up. Any way...back to the book...I am super excited to finish reading this, though that will mean having to wait forever again for the next book to come out. I just hope this time Jace and Clary can finally have....some...intimate time before their "star crossed love" is pulled apart again and they are fighting to be with each other. I don't mind cause anything is better than them being brother and sister.....(gotta leave that hanging for those of you who have yet to read The Mortal Instruments series. Which on my list are a MUST read! If you have not read this series my tastes or on my MUST read list so far are The Twilight Series, Vampire Academy Series, Hunger Games Series, Harry Potter Series, etc. If you liked...no, no, no...you WOULD have LOVED those...so starting over again...If you loved those you will love this series as well! Enjoy, read a book!

Synopsis of Book 5 of The Mortal Instruments: City of Lost Souls: (don't worry this is also the first few pages of the book so its not a spoiler)


"The demon Lilith has been destroyed and Jace has been freed from her captivity. But when the Shadowhunters arrive to rescue him, they find only blood and broken glass. Not only is the boy Clary loves missing–but so is the boy she hates, Sebastian, the son of her father Valentine: a son determined to succeed where their father failed, and bring the Shadowhunters to their knees.

No magic the Clave can summon can locate either boy, but Jace cannot stay away—not from Clary. When they meet again Clary discovers the horror Lilith’s dying magic has wrought—Jace is no longer the boy she loved. He and Sebastian are now bound to each other, and Jace has become what he most feared: a true servant of Valentine’s evil. The Clave is determined to destroy Sebastian, but there is no way to harm one boy without destroying the other. Will the Shadowhunters hesitate to kill one of their own?

Only a small band of Clary and Jace’s friends and family believe that Jace can still be saved — and that the fate of the Shadowhunters’ future may hinge on that salvation. They must defy the Clave and strike out on their own. Alec, Magnus, Simon and Isabelle must work together to save Jace: bargaining with the sinister Faerie Queen, contemplating deals with demons, and turning at last to the Iron Sisters, the reclusive and merciless weapons makers for the Shadowhunters, who tell them that no weapon on this earth can sever the bond between Sebastian and Jace. Their only chance of cutting Jace free is to challenge Heaven and Hell — a risk that could claim any, or all, of their lives.

And they must do it without Clary. For Clary has gone into the heart of darkness, to play a dangerous game utterly alone. The price of losing the game is not just her own life, but Jace’s soul. She’s willing to do anything for Jace, but can she even still trust him? Or is he truly lost? What price is too high to pay, even for love?

Darkness threatens to claim the Shadowhunters in the harrowing fifth book of the Mortal Instruments series."
