The Mortal Instruments Trilogy

Who among you watched the movie City of Bones lately?

If you did, then lucky you, cause I haven't watched it yet. :(

But I guess that, like the Twilight Saga and the Percy Jackson Series, it doesn't exactly follow the book's plot.t

Am I right?

Well, it's the producers' choice anyway. The movie is directed by Harald Zwart and was written by Jessica Postigo. It's based on the lovely trilogy by the lovely author, Cassandra Clare (which is by the way, one of my favorite authors)

Let's talk about the posotive and negative sides of the movie...

NEGATIVE

1. Doesn't follow original plot.
2. Isabelle should be more of a chick than Clary, not the other way around (no offense to the actors).
3. Clary's hair isn't red enough. And I'm pretty sure she's supposed to be shorter too.
4. Jace's hair is curly, not wavy.

POSITIVE

1. I suppose they did well with the special effects.
2. The cast was picked nicely.
3. Simon is hot! :)
4. Even though the movie doesn't exactly follow the book's plot, there's still a lot of action, suspense, and romance. :)

Does anyone here wants to give me a link as to where I can download the movie?

Anyway, it's always better to read the books than to hit the theater and watch its movie adaptation.

The original Mortal Instruments Trilogy, City of Bones, City of Ashes and City of Glass is an original plot owned by the lovely author, Cassandra Clare. Recently, a post-series has been published, City of Fallen Angels and City of Lost Souls. The sixth and final book, City of Heavenly Fire, will be published in May, 2014.

You can read the first three books separately and not find a cliffhanger at the end of the third book. If you want a glimpse of Jace and Clary's boyfriend-girlfriend life, then you should read the next books.

I learned a lot of things from these books, like random Latin words that comes in handy at school and lots of random history facts that comes more handy at school. It also taught me valuable life lessons, like not discriminating the third gender and to always be strong and never give up. :)

Cassandra Clare incorporates the concept of angels and demons with the modern world perfectly. You'll fall in love with Jace, the witty, playful and quite the badboy of the New York Institute. You'll be amazed by Clary's artistic talents and her complete love for her family and of course, for Jace.

Honestly, you'll enjoy reading it. :) So I suggest you should either by the books or download the ebook. The ebooks are available in http://www.epubbud.com

The prequel series, The Infernal Devices, can be also found there. It currently composes of three books, Clockwork Angel, Clockwork Prince and Clockwork Princess. It focuses on the story of Jace's ancestor, Will Herondale and is set in Victorian England, ten years after the peace treaties between the demon-fighting Shadowhunters and Downworlders (vampires, fairies, werewolves, and warlocks) was signed.

If you already read the Mortal Instruments, you'll find enough comforting elements in the series to love it and enoy reading it.
