Pages 1-15

If you plan to read this book, I suggest not reading my posts. If you don't plan on reading this book, read my posts! :)

Today, during SSR, I read the first 15 pages of my book. You learn that the two main characters so far are a girl Clary and her friend Simon. They go together to a club called Pandemonium. This is a really good name for this club, because when they are there, Clary sees a boy with blue hair. He sits alone, and a girl approaches him. She had on a long white dress. Clary sees the boy and girl go into a storage room. However, she sees two other boys following them. One of them pulls out a knife! Clary tells Simon, but he swore he saw no one follow the blue haired boy. Simon calls over the bouncer though, just in case. Clary goes silently into the storage room, and sees the blue haired boy tied to the wall. The girl in the white dress has a whip in her hand! She learns that the girl's name is Isabelle, and the other boys' (one is her brother) are Alec and Jace. They tell Clary the blue haired boy is a demon, and kill him. He shrunk and eventually disappeared! Clary thought she was going insane. The three other kids were confused on what to do with Clary though, because they knew she knew too much, just being that Clary was able to see them. Not many normal humans could see them. Just then, the bouncer and Simon walk in.... And that's where I stopped reading (:

Visualization: This was very visual. I could easily picture the demon boy and the other children in a room full of wire. I could see the demon boy vaporizing before everyone's eyes. I could also see the very beginning when Clary sees them walk into the room.

  1. Hey Teagan!

    Wow, your book sounds like it moves quickly...it wouldn't be a "before-bed" read for me because my brain would have to work to figure out all that is going on.

    I saw this book yesterday near some Twilight and other fantasy-esque stories. Is that the kind of genre that you typically enjoy? Do you have any theories about what is going to happen in the book?

  3. Mom, I like Clary because she is brave and tries to fight for herself. I think that is what we have in common!
