I got this novel from my friend.
When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder― much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing―not even a smear of blood―to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?
This is Clary's first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. It's also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jace's world with a vengeance, when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know...
Exotic and gritty, exhilarating and utterly gripping, Cassandra Clare's ferociously entertaining fantasy takes readers on a wild ride that they will never want to end.

The Mortal Instruments is one of series that I want to read since I knew that this series exist. But the problem is, I am very idle to search and read. Moreover, when I want to read this series about two years ago, I didn't have any device to read it. I means, I couldn't stay read in front of my PC all the time. So, when I got my smartphone, I decided to search this novel and try to read it.
Actually, I had been watch the movie before I read this novel. When I watch the movie, I started to curious with the novel. Is there any different? Is there any interesting thing in novel that not mentioned at movie? Okay. I really want to know the detail of this story. So, I was very excited to know more about City of Bones.
