April Book Haul #2


Hello there!
This Book Haul is a little boring because it consists mainly in the Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare and one manga. So, let's start with the manga!


Ever since I was 6 I have been in love with Sailor Moon and usually you can't find the manga here, in Romania, but this year Comic Con happened! I didn't get to go because all the tickets were sold out, but a friend of mine managed to get me the 5th manga in the series (the one about Black Lady) and this lovely bookmark. While I was reading the book I remembered the episodes so well. Sailor Moon fan forever!


I've read the 1st book of the series, City of Bones, last month and even though I didn't expect to like it I ended up caring for the characters, which is lovely because the series will have a total of 6 books. The 2nd book, City of Ashes, does the series justice. We find out more about Valentine, Jace's history, how Simon is adapting to his new life and witness Clary and Jace falling deeper in love.


And then we have the 3rd book, City of Glass! This book was brilliant from the first to the last word! It was intense, the battle scene was described perfectly, the plot had so many twists! I loved it! If you want you can skip the first two and jump right into this one. And even though I am supposed to hate the evil new character, Sebastian, I can't. I actually really like him, he is manipulative, yes, but for a person with angel and a lot of demon blood, being raised by Valentine, I can understand why he acts this way. An amazing book, great job Cassie!


And then we have the 4th book, City of Fallen Angels. After the marvelous 3rd book it was clearly that the 4th will not measure up. This book concentrates more on Simon and his acceptance of his new life. Maia's boyfriend, Jordan, appears in this book and a few characters from Cassandra's Infernal Devices Series. I didn't read that series, but I will do once summer is here. The first 200-300 pages were a bit boring, but when we get to the fight scene it is a roller coaster and your love for the series will be restored.

                               
So, this is it! April's book haul.
Hope this made you want to read one of these books :)





Keep reading!
xoxo
