The Mortal War is over, and sixteen-year-old Clary Fray is back home in New York, excited about all the possibilities before her. She’s training to become a Shadowhunter and to use her unique power. Her mother is getting married to the love of her life. Downworlders and Shadowhunters are at peace at last. And—most importantly of all—she can finally call Jace her boyfriend.
But nothing comes without a price.
Someone is murdering Shadowhunters, provoking tensions between Downworlders and Shadowhunters that could lead to a second, bloody war. Clary’s best friend, Simon, can’t help her—his mother just found out that he’s a vampire, and now he’s homeless. When Jace begins to pull away from her without explaining why, Clary is forced to delve into the heart of a mystery whose solution reveals her worst nightmare: she herself has set in motion a terrible chain of events that could lead to her losing everything she loves. Even Jace.
The stakes are higher than ever in the #1 New York Times bestselling fourth installment of the Mortal Instruments series.

Big Things That Happened in 2015
- I mentioned the school talent show in which the teachers sang Yellow Submarine.
- I worked at a Catholic summer camp for the summer and had a blast. I wrote about it and shared some pictures.
- I survived over a week of blinding smoke due to forest fires. It was insane. I talked about that here.
- I had my very first ever Blogversary which was exciting.
Analysis of Books I Read in 2015
This was the very first year that I ever kept track of the books that I read. My stats have amazed me.
- I read 141 books.
- Almost all of the books I read this year were 4 or 5 stars. I must be pretty good at choosing books I know I’ll enjoy.
- Over two-thirds of the books I read this year were from the library or books I own.
- Over half of the books I read this year were hard copied (Paperback or Hardcover) while over a quarter were ebooks. Audiobooks made up the rest.
- About a quarter of the books I read this year were debuts.
I made some pretty nifty looking pie charts in Excel (you can just pretend they are totally awesome).
