City of Bones - Cassandra Clare

City of Bones is the first novel in the Mortal Instruments series. This book contains some teenage angst, but the story more than makes up for it.

Clary Fray is 15 years old, and thinks she's a normal teenage girl. While Clary's at an all-ages club with her friends she sees a murder. A murder with a victim and killers that nobody else can see. That's Clary's introduction to the world of the shadowhunters. Before Clary can get her head around this new dangerous world, her Mom goes missing and she's running for her life. This tale has action, suspense, and twists to tangle your mind. Highly recommended.
