Because It's Bitter

Cassandra Clare posted on her website the scene from City of Ashes, when Jace & Clary are at the Seelie court  and the Queen tricks them into sharing that ****KISS****, but the best part is that it's from Jace's POV and man oh man is it GOOD. It's a must read!!!! I will share a snippet and provide the****LINK*** to the Rest.... Definite Must Read!


The scene that takes place during pages 170-174 of City of Ashes, in the chapter The Seelie Court, here from Jace’s point of view. I even gave it a name — “Because It Is Bitter.” Because boy, is Jace bitter here.


“But I like it
Because it is bitter,
And because it is my heart.” — Stephen Crane


“I know that I will not leave my sister here in your Court,” said Jace, “and since there is nothing to be learned from either her or myself, perhaps you could do us the favor of releasing her?”

The Queen smiled. It was a beautiful, terrible smile. The Queen was a lovely woman; she had that inhuman loveliness that faeries did, that was more like the loveliness of hard crystal than the beauty of a human. The Queen did not look any particular age: she could have been sixteen or forty-five. Jace supposed there were those who would have found her attractive — people had died for love of the Queen — but she gave him a cold feeling in his chest, as if he’d swallowed ice water too fast. “What if I told you she could be freed by a kiss?”


OKAY HERE IS THE LINK FOR THE REST TRUST ME IT ONLY GETS BETTER *****LINK***

Cover Crazy Monday *3*

COVER CRAZY MONDAY is a weekly meme hosted by  the Book Worms.The point of this meme is to admire the art and beauty of a book’s design, so I’m going to post minimal words. It is up to you to write how you feel and what you like about it the way you’d like to.



First off I cheated  again, I picked 4 books but I couldn't help myself. Secondly I really loved this series as many have. Thirdly I was inspired by that secret chapter hunt that is going on for City of Fallen Angels.

These covers are just beyond gorgeous. The bright colors and beautiful piks are just wow. I love the first cover  of Jace who looks smoking hot! But i really think these covers   are really great. And the books are just as wonderful. 

So what covers did you guys choose this week???
