City of Bones Movie to Book Adaptatin by Cassandra Clare

Hi,

     So last Friday I went and saw City of Bones with my friend. Now the movie was so so good and I would definitely see it again, but.....they left out a lot. Now I forewarn you that there is going to be a lot of spoilers for you in this post if you have not yet read or seen City of Bones. I absolutely loved the book it was great, the action was good, the pace was good and I just had a good time reading it. There was obviously a lot that went on in the book, because it is pretty thick. And the movie was long as well, a little over three hours. But in the movie they made the demons look so good, I mean they actually looked real and you could see them turning into something demonic on screen, it was great! But Jace and Clary didn't have a lot of romance in the movie. I mean it was portrayed that they obviously like each other but in the book it was so much more. And also one thing I liked was that they kept a lot of Alek moments from the book. Plus Simon was beautiful, coming from a girl, may I just say he is smoking hot! His character was great, he made me love Simon even more than in the book. One thing they did in the movie is combine some things from the second book, City of Ashes with the first, which doesn't make sense to someone who read the book, but makes sense to someone who hasn't. There were a few parts that were cheesy and slowed down too much, but other than that I was on the edge of my seat, it was excellent! I gave the movie 5 stars because it all looked so real and the affects we're outstanding! I definable recomend you go see if you read the book or not because you will not regret it! 

Happy reading!
