City of Bones

I've started reading The City of Bones right now, and it is a fantastic book. I think the trick to writing fantasy books the general population will enjoy is to have a normal human as a main character. This way, other characters will have to explain what is going on to the human, so the reader does not feel confused when anything out of the ordinary occurs. Anyways, I'm glad to have a new book to read!

My son and daughter have both read and enjoyed the City of Bones series.  I think I will tackle it this summer.

The City of Bones seems like a really great book - I'm going to try it! Thanks for the recommendation.

Just before that though I finished the before-last book of a series I'm sort of hooked to called the Mortal Instruments -- it's fantasy, yes, but it's got a very real, very gritty side to it (happens in modern day New-York with people that actually feel human) that I love, not to mention it's so witty it's got me laughing every other page. Read it! The first book is called City of Bones.
