Staff Pick: City of Bones by Cassandra Clare

Clary Fray is fifteen. She lives with her mother, hangs out with her best friend, Simon, and does all those normal fifteen-year-old things. Well, she did until she accidentally witnesses a murder committed by three teenagers. And after seeing these strange teens kill someone, the body disappears into thin air! From that point onward, Clary is thrown into the dark world of the Shadowhunters and, in particular, the world of the angelic jerk Jace . Clary’s life quickly moves as far away from ordinary as possible.

For lovers of supernatural romance, this fast-paced, oft-times funny adventure is a must read. This is the first in Cassandra Clare’s Mortal Instruments series so if you’re looking for a set of books to read this summer, start here!
