The Mortal Instruments Are Killing Me!

So I just finished City Of Ashes, and I have to say that I LOVED IT- but I HATED IT- at the same time. I can't really say anything specific about why, because most of y'all (there I go again) haven't read them yet. So hurry up and finish! You too Cody, you still need to read number two! Book three, City Of Glass, doesn't come out until March 29, 2009!
It's called City Of Glass because the last Mortal Instrument is the mirror. The book takes place primarily in Idris.

I won't spoil the huge plotline for anyone unread, but I should mention that Cassandra Clare enjoys torturing her readers with a story of 'impossible love' in her words. It's what makes it exciting, and the excitement of not knowing how things will turn out is part of the whole book experience. She's right in a cruel way. But she's working on the book. Never fear. And there's a small possibility that her publishers may push up the March release date in the future, but not for now. By the way, Cassandra has only ever confirmed the fact that any gay characters in the books are really gay. Other than that she has neither confirmed nor denied anything in the whole series. Being a story tease again.

Cassie has also said that she will be writing more about the Shadowhunters after this trilogy. It will be in Idris in the Victorian Era, and will feature the Lightwood's ancestors.

Cassie also mentioned that there have been possiblities of a movie in the future, but there's nothing other than that. Not even on IMDB.

One more thing on this topic, is check out Cosmogirl.com. Go to their Entertainment section to Book Reviews, and you can see the first chapter of City of Bones from Jace's perspective, as well as do a quiz. I put the other Mortal Instruments and Cassandra Clare links (which you should all check out) in the links section.

Updates

-The link list has been sorted alphabetically, and I've added some awesome new links to it. Check it out!
-Added Mortal Instruments to Favourite Books section and Books We're Waiting for to Come Out.
-Added Alicia's B-day to Upcoming Events Section.
-Added new poll.

The only name I can think of for your characters Alicia, is Raechel for the redhead. But that probably sucks since one of your characters already has an 'ae'. Unless they're siblings.
Call me when you finish City of Bones! But stick to the plan *winks*

200

So I finished my art project. (Is a background necessary? Because if it is, I'm not technically done.) That was a relief.

But unfortunately Mom didn't pick up City of Ashes for me yet. Grrrr. I need to read book two of The Mortal Instruments! They're so good! I need to know what happens! Mom! Why? She said she'll try and pick it up tomorrow. Not fair. She could go get it right now and leave my brother at his skate park for two seconds, but no! Sometimes Cool Mom, can be totally uncool.

Watch this awesome video. It's really cool. Trust me if you love qudditch.

School takes up too much of our lives. It can be fun sometimes, but so are three day weekends. I can't wait until our P.A. day this week. It's going to be weird going back to five days after so many short weeks. I can't stand the thought. But I can absolutely stand that we're encroaching on the countdown to The Crossing Of Ingo. If you haven't read it, go shoot yourself in the tail. Really.
