Reading: City of Bones

This book is part of the Mortal Instruments series and is going to be made into a movie.  I have also heard a lot of good things about this book!  I also just noticed a pattern about reading books that are movies or are going to be movies.  The cover of the book is very shiny and eye catching which I like.  I sometimes can not help but judge a book by its cover sometimes when I pick it off the shelf.  The book starts out with a group of kids trying to get into an all ages night club.  One of the kids notices a girl in a beautiful white dress being followed by an awestruck boy.  They went into a back room which would have been normal at a club.  What was not normal about this was the body guards that showed up and guarded the door after the two went in.  The book then cuts to inside the room where the girl seduces the boy close and then the girl started to beat him up.  She had tattoos on her arm and the boy called her a shadow hunter.  The girl was named Isabelle but it was the boy who tried to gain some information before he killed the monster that looked like a boy.  That is when Clary walked in.  They called Clary a mundie which I'm not sure but probably means the same as a muggle from Harry Potter.  They were surprised that Clary could even see them.  Simon went in the room after Clary and did not see anyone so Clary pretended no one was there.  That was just a little analysis of the first chapter.  Usually books do not grab my attention for a while.  This book, however, caught my attention right away.
