WORSE THAN TWILIGHT *facepalm* (how is this even possible)...

City of Ashes - Cassandra Clare


Awful, worse, horrible, I'm in pain right now...

 

"How is Maia 15 years old when her brother died when she attended second grade of high school and that happened two years ago? So that would make her 19 or at least 18." - good job miss Cassandra, you sure know your math *facepalm*

 


THIS IS EVEN WORSE THAN TWILIGHT, YOU KNOW I'M SERIOUS IF I SAY THAT !!!

 


I have not seen such a large amount of bullshit in one book since well... EVER !

 

And I don't understand how can it possibly be so popular and loved. I just can't. The world is going straight to hell. That must be it. No other explanation.

 

 

Characters.

 

1. Jace.

 

The greatest asshole of all time.

 

Bosses Clary, thinks himself a god, the strongest, the best, the most powerful, the handsomest, picks fights at random and expects everyone's praises. His ego is the size of the universe. Or like a black hole. Just kinda sucks everything in. I can't even put to words how great of a douchebag he really is.

 

I don't care that you had a hard life. The starving children in Africa have bad childhoods, children who were left to die have bad childhoods... you, you self absorbing jerk of the century, have had people who care about you at least around you to help you get through your shit. You had money, food, clothes, shelter and freedom. Yeah, not a good father but boo fucking hoo. It doesn't mean you can treat everyone else like crap.

 

I want him dead, dead, seriously really dead. Like dismembered, burned, pored acid on it and then scattered across the globe dead!

 


2. Clary.

 

What a freaking idiot. Sappy, annoying moron. Dear lord, how could you let these characters into existence? I sometimes wonder if there is some kind of a spell or illusion or poison used on readers to see those idiots as heroes and that's why they like them.

 

She is soooooooooooooo special because her daddy is Valentine and her brother is the super asshole Jace and she can create her own runes, never before having been seen or invented. Oh, my. Suddenly, without any knowledge of it, she can create whatever the fuck she wants with her stele (just imagine Harry Potter and their spells and wands). And what does she do with it??? She opens things. Wow. Imagine that. SHE OPENS THINGS. My, my...

 

Her brother wants to fuck her and she's on board with it now.

 

She kept playing Simon. Let's be together, I can't possibly lose you, perhaps some day I'll grew to love you a bit more but for now just put up with my drooling after my brother and imagine him while we make out. Oh, yeah, so hot, don't you think?

 

But Jace wants her and then he stops and then he wants her and then he stops.

MAKE UP YOUR MIND !

 

Plus, she is so freakin' static. Everything in the story happens to her. She doesn't so much of anything really. Unbelievable. I don't understand why the story is told form her point of view.

 


3. Magnus.

 

Perhaps the only interesting character even though he is described with so much glitter it makes me wanna puke every time he comes up. He is gay and a high warlock. He has been around for so many years it makes me wanna crawl into some hole and die because guess what - he is still SEVENTEEN, yup you heard me right. Despite being centuries old, he is still seventeen. And acts like a total slut on speed.

 

And he and Alec just have NO CHEMISTRY. None. At all.

 


4. Valentine.

 

He is supposed to be a BIG BAD SCARY VILLAIN. You know what he really is? A white haired older dude who likes to mess with the heads of his children and disappear for the most of the book. HE IS A THREAT ONLY BECAUSE THE AUTHOR SAID SO.

 

I just can't... It's too much... My brain started to leak out of my head.

 

 

 

More remarks.

 

Steles and runes.

 

THERE ARE NO RULES ABOUT THEM. No levels, no collection of them, no limits to them. It's all so vague and not detailed and the author just comes up with more shit as it suits her stupid story. There is no history of it. Or some experts or teachers or anything. Could you make it any less transparent? *gah*

 


Plot.

 

BOREDOM. PASSING OUT. NOTHING REALLY HAPPENS.

 

Only some mild, not detailed, vague, annoying, not-making-any-sense teenage drama.

 


Conclusion.

 

I SHOULD GET A TROPHY FOR FINISHING THIS.

 

IF I DON'T POST ANYTHING IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS, THAT MEANS I'M ON LOCKDOWN IN SOME MENTAL INSTITUTION.

 

I WON'T BLEED MYSELF TO DEATH OVER THIS BOOK BECAUSE I'M NOT EMO BUT I DO STRONGLY RECOMMEND FOR ALL OF YOU WITH A TROUBLED HEART, SHORT NERVES OR EXPLODING ATTITUDE, TO STAY AWAY FROM THIS BOOK AS FAR AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE IF YOU DON'T WANT SHIT TO HAPPEN.

 

JUST BACK OUT.

 

LEAVE.

 

FORGET THIS MONSTROSITY OF A BOOK EVEN EXISTS.
