Wtf Sebastian ("The Mortal Instruments: City of Heavenly Fire" Part 1)

 Like srsly WTF MAN.
I'm about half way through "City of Heavenly Fire" so you know what that means (in case you don't this is when I do a little update about how I'm feeling about the book I'm reading okay good talk).
So much has happened already it's great how much action she's packing into this last book. Plus lots of cute coupley stuff that makes me want to puke rainbows. All in all I'm sad but excited to see how this series ends.

STORY TIME WITH KELSEY:
I rewatched the movie tonight which was actually what got me interested in reading the books. I'm not sure if this will be an insult (I certainly don't see as such) but this series really reminds me of "Twilight." I'm sorry HEAR ME OUT like I really can't put my finger on why I love these books but I'm hooked. It feels the same as reading "Twilight" did when I was 16. There's lots of hot kissing scenes and especially with this last book with the heavenly fire and there being the whole I can't lose my cool around you thing with Jace. It seemed very Edward of him.

Returning from London Below ("Neverwhere" Seems to be missing a part 1??)

Okay so I finally finished "Neverwhere" by Neil Gaiman. I felt like I was reading this book FOREVER. When a book takes me this long to read, it's because I just can't get into it. I think what prevented me from really digging into this book was that I didn't really start to care about the characters till towards the end of the book. I'm not sure why but I didn't find myself worrying about the welfare of these characters even though I very well should have. They went through some crazy shit. I also think I had trouble picturing some of the places since I'm not from London. Although, there are enough descriptions provided that I wasn't totally in the dark.
I did enjoy the ending. It provided closure while at the same time allowing the reader to wonder what happens after the story ends.
If you're a fan of Mr. Gaiman's you will love this book.  I wasn't super crazy about it but I didn't hate it either.
AND NEXT THE LAST BOOK IN THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS SERIES I'M NOT READY
