I tried to like City of Bones more after reading many great reviews. It wasn't terrible, I just had a hard time getting into the story line. I felt like Clary only being 15 was my main issue. Decisions she made and the situations she was in were hard for me to place a 15 year old in. I did like the idea of the plot and another world that not all can see. The twist at the end was definitely not something I saw coming and will keep me reading through the rest of the series.

Cult mash-up of Day of the Triffids and The Omega Man is engaging enough to make you overlook how brazen it is. Teenage sisters improbably survive the end of the world: time to load up with automatic weapons, hit the shops and argue about boys!

Handles its genre movie conventions with knowing deftness, but after a strong first act the pace slacks off a bit too much and it feels like the movie loses focus - faster and funnier would be better. Recovers somewhat for the climax, though. Ultimately, this is only ever superficial, but it's also undeniably good fun.
