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*

Sorry Cody

I am so sorry, I forgot to hand in your art :(, But if you tell him you were absent he wont get mad, cuz although hes mean to me cuz he thinks im a freak, he probably wouldnt be mad at you. Plus side, I didnt accidently through it into a fire or anything. Once again, very very sorry! I really should have put it in place i wouldve remembered it in :P, so I hope you dont decide to lock me up inside a iron maiden and ship me off to Alcatraz...

Sorry again.

BAM! Underpants!

A: So do you wear underpants?
Jesus (me): Well, actually, I invented the concept of "Underpants" and passed it along to God, or as I like to call him, Daddy-Kins. Then he put it into the mind of some guy, and BAM! Underpants.

Yes I'm Jesus. Well, I need to act as him for drama. Ahahaha.. Dumbledore's creepy comments...

So I'm bored, continuing my story, inhaling Mini-Eggs.. Being bored...Drinking raspberry tea that tastes like warm rosewater... Trying not to spill it on my white shirt.

I went to visit Weston Memo today w/Katie and George, as they picked up their siblings. We saw Ms. Lynch, and Ms B. Hayes. Me and Katie told them Bodi came back for a visit, (cause aparently he was at the school yesterday) and they were shocked. I can't believe they remember us still! Ah, for the carefree days of early childhood....

You're welcome Lishi. I knew you guys would enjoy them.

No! It's not witchcraft Cody, thats generalization. It's Non-gender-specific-magical-peoples-craft

You are a baby. Dog food is for dogs, and people food is for people.

Back to writing.

I'm BAAAAAACCCKKK!!!!

HIDY HO!!!!
Sorry I haven't blogged for a while. I haven't been coming on here. But I am now, and that's all that matters right? So, I was quite disappointed at the amount of wind this afternoon. I didn't bring a jacket because it was so warm! But noooo, it just couldn't stay warm could it? Of course not.
I have also started reading City Of Bones, which, may I say, is AWESOME so far (and I am positive it will continue to be.)

Hmm, what else...oh! Livi got me coconut shells! Well, one coconut shell cut in half. Although most of you know that already. But I was reinacting (probably spelt wrong) Monty Python's Quest For The Holy Grail! Hellz ya! Thanks Liv!

In other news (:P) I have gotten a new story idea. It's a murder mystery and I need names! There are five teenagers, and I'm going to look on a site to see if I can find anything, but I will give you guys the descriptions and see if you can come up with anything that fits.

The first is the main character. She is sixteen, with long light brown hair and molten brown eyes. She has an athletic (or skinny, but not skin-and-bone skinny) body. She is very smart but is also a klutz.
Next is the other 16-year-old. He has black hair that flops into his face. His eyes are very dark brown, almost black. He is one of those brooding, mysterious guys. He is tall. He likes to read.
Next character is 17. He has short blone hair and blue eyes. He is short for his age, but is still taller than the main character (whatever her name may be):P. He is also funny/sarcastic.
Also, there is another 17-year-old. She has medium length reddish hair (but not crazy red) and blue eyes. She is tallish, but not skin and bone. Very flirty.
Okay, last one. The last character is 18. He has shaggy brown hair and blue eyes. Very tall, responsible, but still funny.

That's it. If you guys can come up with any names for any of them, could you email them to me or put them in the blog? If you do, either describe who's name it should be or put it in the same (relatively) colour that i described them in. THANKS!!!

Loud afternoon.

Heii dudes,
So how was the afternoon, did anything exciting happen? (If your confused by the title, I was at All-City, and I couldn't think of one.) Anyway, what did we do in art? Did we get our report cards yet, because everyone else is getting theirs? Short blog, but I have a strange urge to go downtown to the cool chapters at the Eatons Center, and just sit there and read. If anyone's been there, you will know how totally awesome that particular chapters is. Anyway L8R.
~~Cola-ola.

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.

Refreshed.....

I am trying to get rid of all trace of sickness, so, I took a nice long, hot shower, (totally unlike me, I believe in conserving water and I can't stand cold, but when you feel all yucky, a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do!) I cleaned my whole room and I changed my sheets, (also unlike me; cleaning? Yuck!) And now I am in a refreshing face mask that is really really tingly. (again, unlike me. I am so NOT the girly girl type.)

I am going to have to buy city of bones so I can see what all the fuss is about. (or I can borrow it.) I am going to buy a book on how to learn sign language because it would be really really cool to know how to speak. Not that you guys would do it, but we could like gossip and no one would know what we're saying.I and we can call people names right in front of their faces and they wouldn't know. It would also help to get jobs, and would look good on the college or uni resumee. (accent on the second e)

Anywhoo...to anyone who hasn't seen Enchanted, you are really missing out on some serious James Marsden. The weid thing is, Nancy played a lesbien two timer cheating girlfriend in the Musical RENT...so it was kinds weird seeing her in this movie.
