If you haven't read book one, City of Bones, don't read this blog. It may contain spoilers...
In my experience, the second book in a trilogy is often nothing but filler and fluff. Some good information may be passed along to the reader, but the book as a whole is less interesting than the first and third. That is NOT the case with City of Ashes, by Cassandra Clare. So much happened in this book: Clary continues denying the attraction they feel for one another but Jace insists their impossible relationship isn't impossible; Simon makes a definite move for Clary, too, but then goes through some serious personal transformations and meets a sexy were-girl; Valentine is accelerating his plan against the Clave and wants Jace on his side; the Queen of the Seelie Court hints that there is something very different about Jace and Clary that no one has told them; and Alec, Isabelle, Simon, Clary and Jace all fight lots of demons and try to save the world from Valentine's evil plot. Whew!
Some of the existing plot lines are tied up in this second book, while many more are developed. It's going to be very difficult waiting for the next installment.
