A Bookish Adventure... discussion

What are your thoughts?
I tried to read City of Bones, but it was so cliche and cheesy, so I gave up. Not to mention my ardent hatred of Clary.

Same here.

I didn't like it at all. It was just a bunch of cliches gathered up and mixed together.

I thought it was fine, but it wasn't good

this book was sooo hyped! and it has a huge fandom xD

I only read the first one...and I just never picked up the rest...
I thought it was fine. Like it has potential but I didn't see what all the fuss was about..

The series was okay, but it isn't Clare's best work. It pales in comparison with TID and TDA

It’s really good! Yes it’s not Cassie’s best work (these were her first books y’all) but they give such a good foundation to the world and some classic characters that I simply can’t help but love and find comfort in any shadowhunter book! I think the last three are better than the first three but overall the foreshadowing for other series and other small things makes these books soooo good. I much prefer TID and TLH (I find TDA to be on the same level as the final three TMI books in terms of how much I like them. Expect for Lady Midnight which I adore and is up very high).

Oh my... well I liked the first few books when I read them but then I found out about Cassandra Clare's Ron and Ginny smutty fanfiction and now my thoughts on the whole sibling issue in the books has changed and just thinking about this series makes me uncomfy...

Alec and Jace are AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE them sooo much!!!!

wait what???? Ron and Ginny fanfic.....

oh gosh...I just did research....I NEVER KNEW THAT!!!

I kept putting this series on hold...and now I think that will stay as it is...

I heard her other series is better!

wait what!!? She wrote a Ron x Ginny fanfic!? I thought she only wrote the Dramione one!😲

Yeah, apparently that's how TMI started or something like that.

She wrote a Ron x Ginny fanfiction?
What?!

okay I googled it as well and though I couldn't find the fanfic (which is okay since I never want to read incest), according to many people she did write a fanfic called The mortal instruments about Ron and Ginny in a romantic relation. Now I didn't care much about the Clace thing in TMI at the time I read it since I knew it all along that they weren't related (I intentionally soiled myself after City of Bones because I could not read City of Ashes had they actually been siblings) but this is concerning!!

yesss! that's what I read too!!

(view spoiler)[so apparently the whole aspect with Clary and Jace and the romance is Ron and Ginny seen in a romantic relation...As i've read the first book, I also assumed they weren't really related...but now knowing this....Idk how to feel honestly :/ (hide spoiler)]

Omg, did I spoil you!? I'm sorry!
