^I think you should just buy it, it's one of those books you have to own a copy of!
Some people are so inconsiderate when it comes to keeping library books, or maybe they're just slow :lol:

I just finished City of Glass and it was AMAZING!!!!!
I just want to say that I knew Jace wasn't her brother! I totally saw that one coming! But Sebastian/Jonathon threw be the first 200 pages or so, mostly because WHY would you kiss your sister when you know it's your sister and you obviously don't have any of those feelings for her?

Lauren, Sebastion/Jonathan knew who Clary was. Which makes it all the more sick...

******SPOILER ALERT!!!!*********

I was not surprised by Sebastian's behavior. He really is a sociopath, he doesn't form relationships which is why he is SO evil. He would think nothing of wanting Clary or doing something like that with her. He was jealous of Jace and Clary's obvious attraction and relationship and wanted a taste of what it was like. It is why Valentine had the relationship with Jace for so long and then why he got rid of Jace. At first I think Valentine liked being the "father" to Jace but for his plans to really be viable, he had to cut Jace loose.

Valentine really was evil. He dispised Jace for being as good as he was. Eventually I think he couldn't tolerate Jace's inherant goodness.

Not sure if you've already discussed this . . .

But why is Sebastian (aka Jonathon) on the cover of City of Glass? And why does he have angel's wings??? It just really bothers me that he is given the glory of being on the cover when he's such a . . . . can't even think of a bad enough word for him :o .

I realize that he's a pretty important character in this book, and the other books were leading up to him joining the story, but the cover (until now) has had the "hero/heroine" of the story on it . . . and he's definitely not. *pouts* :cry:

BTW, LOVED this series . . . . probably the best one I've come across, after Twilight of course. :mrgreen:
