Books 2013: City of Ashes (Mortal Instruments #2), by Cassandra Clare

[supercheesegirl]

The second installment in the series didn't disappoint, at least not really. I'm happy with the way she's moving forward the Clary/Jace conflict; I'm enjoying Simon's character development, and I like the addition of Maia, although we need to get to know her better. I'm also interested to see where the Morganstern family backstory is going - I have some ideas, based on comments from the Fairy Queen, Valentine, and Imogene, but we'll see. Glad I have #3 ready to go on my To Read shelf.
