Clockwork Angel by Cassadra Clare.

This is the book that I have currently picked up and started into.  I started off the year with reading the Mortal instruments series.  City of Ashes, Bity of Bones and City of Glass.

I recieved the Mortal Instruments series as a birthday gift from my sister for Christmas 2009.  It took a year for the to reach the top of my reading pile but I am glad they did.  They are a little younger a level then I would normally read, but I do like to read YA books quite often as well.  I loved the Twilight series and the first two books of Eragon, these seemed like a good pick up as well.

The stories revolve around a group of beings that are descended from Angels called Shadowhunters.  They are there to keep the downworlders in line...the demons, the vampires, the faeries, and werewolves amoung others.  The first three books took place in modern day times and Clockwork Angel takes place in London in the reign of Queen Victoria.  The book is declared a prequel to the Mortal instruments series.

I mentioned in the first blog entry, that when I enter a book I am loath to let the world I have entered go.  Reading this book is definitely what I mean.  I picked it up in the store because it existed and I wanted to know even more about the world of shadowhunters than the first three books told me.  I will do this even when I did not particularily like the first couple books, but I will keep reading to find out what happens next. 

I should be finished this book in a day or two and i will let you know how I like it!
