City of Bones

When fifteen-year-old Clary witnesses a murder at a New York nightclub—committed by tattooed teens with impossible weapons—she stumbles headfirst into the hidden world of the Shadowhunters, warriors locked in an eternal battle against demons. Suddenly pulled into their dangerous realm after her mother vanishes and demons start hunting her down, Clary finds herself caught between a sarcastic, infuriatingly attractive Shadowhunter named Jace and questions about her own mysterious abilities that even the warriors can't answer. With wit, danger, and a slow-burn connection that'll have you swooning, this paranormal adventure kicks off an epic saga that blends urban fantasy with romance in the most addictive way. Fair warning: you'll be absolutely hooked by the end and desperate to know what happens next!
