Review of City of Fallen Angels (The Mortal Instruments #4) by Cassandra Clare
Description:
City of Fallen Angels takes place two months after the events of City of Glass. In it, a mysterious someone’s killing the Shadowhunters who used to be in Valentine’s Circle and displaying their bodies around New York City in a manner designed to provoke hostility between Downworlders and Shadowhunters, leaving tensions running high in the city and disrupting Clary’s plan to lead as normal a life as she can — training to be a Shadowhunter, and pursuing her relationship with Jace. As Jace and Clary delve into the issue of the murdered Shadowhunters, they discover a mystery that has deeply personal consequences for them — consequences that may strengthen their relationship, or rip it apart forever.
Meanwhile, internecine warfare among vampires is tearing the Downworld community apart, and only Simon — the Daylighter who everyone wants on their side — can decide the outcome; too bad he wants nothing to do with Downworld politics. Love, blood, betrayal and revenge: the stakes are higher than ever in City of Fallen Angels

Characters:
Simon, the daylighter, he is in this more now, thank god, because i though he did not have as much role in the other 3, but this one, he was more of a main character, and i am glad, because without him, this story would not of unfolded.
Clary, she is training to become a shadowhunter, has a boyfriend, and is happy, al she asks for, as a normal life as possible, but even that cannot happen.
Jace, the shadow hunter, is so happy to have Clary, but he starts beginning to become distant, and we are confused, why, but eventually you understand.
My Thoughts:
I thought this book, was amazing, and once i got into it, i really did not want to put it down. The storyline is immense, and it did not disappoint me. The characters develop allot more, and you see the ones who weren't as brave become brave.
If you have read the 3 before, read this, you will not be disappointed!

PS. I'm late once more, I'm sorry, i still have 4 more reviews to go! sorry!
Signed book!
Today i met an author , her name is Barbara Spencer she has wrote this book Running: A Boy. A Missing Computer Scientist. A Secret So Dangerous, it Must Stay Hidden from the World.
I have a copy of it, and its signed! so happy!
Here is the description of the book:
Fifteen year old Scott Anderson has a secret so big he daren't share it even with his best friends. He and his dad are American. If you're American, you don't talk about it. If you don't talk about that, you don't talk about any of the other secrets that haunt your life that your dad's really a computer scientist and people are searching for him. When Bill Anderson disappears, Scott is determined to find him. He has already lost his mother. She disappeared in the California earthquake, which killed ninety percent of the world's computer scientists; a tragedy for which America is held responsible. But there's little for Scott to go on; a scrap of paper left in a printer and a poster pinned to the wall. Now someone's looking for Scott, too. Is it the mysterious Frenchman, who pretends to be a radiation expert, or Sean Terry of the American Secret Service, who believes the United States innocent of the crimes levelled against it? Could it be Hilary Stone, the prettiest girl in class, who also claims to work for the American Secret Service? Or is it someone else entirely? Following the clues, Scott heads north on his dad's bike. As his pursuers catch up with him, it is Hilary Stone who saves him. Despite not trusting her, he grudgingly allows her to go with him to Scotland, where he believes the answer lies. After all, as Hilary points out; she has the gun. The annual flower festival at the Keukenhof in Holland plays host to the final scene where, at last, Scott comes face to face with his pursuers, and learns the secret his father has always kept hidden from him.
