--last night i ended up reading City of Bones by Cassandra Clare
for atleast 3 hours...? Was up til about 5 am??
It's worth it. The storyline is SO fun.
And there are SO many fun sci-fi-ish details added in, about the Shadowhunters (Jace Wayland, Alec and Isabelle Lightwood) & Clary(& her best friend Simon) who's mother is kidnapped -- & Jace and his clan of Shadowhunters help find her mother//figure out Clary's background story//help her get to the truth of who she is.
--she realizes shes actually a Shadowhunter by blood as well(they fight all of the Downworlders; like demons, vampires, werewolves, faeries, etc etc)
--its SOOO fun to read. And I love that Jace sounds delicious, and his character is hilarious. His humor sort of reminds me of EdwardCullen from Twilight...but even funnier. Sometimes.
--Clary is a great main character, because shes vivacious, and even though she's not PHYSICALLY strong, emotionally her strength stands out considerably in this book.
--I love that Isabelle has a golden whip that she uses to kill things.
--a favorite quote so far::
[Isabelle] "I forgot that's what gets you all hot and bothered Jace,
girls killing things." [Jace] "I like anyone killing things," he said equably. "Especially me."
[p. 337]

ahhhh. so now i really really need to study for Art History,
since I have an exam on Tuesday of this upcoming week;
and i still barely know my crap.
--I'm also reading a book called 'Scouting the Divine' by Margaret Feinberg
+ I am really enjoying it so far.
+One quoted review for her so far is:
"Feinberg is a gifted storyteller and spiritual teacher. She has a knack for leading us to an 'aha' insight or a reflective 'hmmm.'" -- The Dallas Morning News
^^Couldnt have worded it better myself.
Ok have a good day everyone. :)
I'll probably be back on here later this afternoon.<3
