Every time we read a book, we hope that the second half will be an improvement on the first. Sadly, with City of Bones, it’s quite the opposite. We’ve gone from confusing and boring straight into incestuous and creepy.
When the main characters find out they’re related, they don’t despair, or even change their behavior. When the bad guy gets away and Clarissa’s mom is stuck in a perma-coma, they don’t seem concerned. When the book seems to be ending, the author doesn’t bother to tie up even a single loose end.
If you’re thinking about taking your mind on a vacation, stay away from this city.
Not to be an annoying pedant or anything, but the cartoon singing sword you refer to was from a Bugs Bunny short called “Knighty Knight Bugs” not from Roger Rabbit. It’s important to keep your lagomorphs straight.
Well played, Ms. Pedant. I was actually referring to “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?” where it makes a brief appearance. I haven’t actually watched any classic Warner Brothers cartoons, though, so I can see where I went wrong.
I demand that you both fill in the gaps in your cartoon rabbit knowledge.
Ezra used “gay sex machina” (that’s how I heard it) in the Sex and the City 2 episode.
Oh yeah! I thought we’d covered that before. Let’s just keep this mistake between you and I.
I thought that got cut from SatC2… guess not, huh?
Oh Cassie Claire. She used to be a popular Harry Potter fanfiction writer until a huge plagiarism scandal.
