good story but tricky to follow on audio book
This is undoubtedly a good book, but its also a complicated and lenghty one. I found myself having to relisten to segments to try and figure out what was going on. It would in this instance have been better to have the book to flick through to re-read crucial passages. It is enjoyable, and will appeal to twilight fans and YA market.

can't wait get the next one
Where does City of Bones rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
One of the very best. I have listened to harry potter, hunger games, the help, and my brother has bought audiobooks that i need to listen to. I think all of them have been amazing but since I have listened to it recently it is stuck in my mind.
What other book might you compare City of Bones to, and why?
13 treasure series because they follow the same line with fairies and the second sight. I loved both stories but audible doesn't have 13 treasures. Please try get it.
Which scene did you most enjoy?
I thought all the scene written were very well done. I liked the scene when they go to Magnus' party and the vampire bit.
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
You better check your families history.
Any additional comments?
I loved this story and can't wait to get more credits to buy the next book. I have even started to write a story and one day hope to get it published but since I am 13 thats going to be in a while.

Good young adult book!
What did you like best about this story?
While the themes in the story are quite familiar if you read a lot of vampire/demon young fiction, the alternate world described was very believable. I really enjoyed listening to this, if it was a book it would be a page turner.
Which character – as performed by Ari Graynor – was your favourite?
I found her portrayals very believable, especially Simon.

Excellent listen!!!
Having seen the movie based on the book, my expectations for the story were high, and they were met. Anyone who knows and loves the story from the movie is almost certain to enjoy this audiobook. Ari Graynor’s performance was outstanding, I am so looking forward to the next book. Well done Cassandra!
