Don't worry. I joined the party late ...Thanks. Don't worry. I joined the party late as well. Thus the reason I'm reviewing the episodes after the show went off the air.

I read the book about ten thousand years ago and while this felt like a good and faithful adaptation for the most part (the movie version was kinda awful), there were some things that raised my brow in possible concern. <br /><br />First we are told right out that Clary is not only supernaturally inclined she has had her memory suppressed. That mystery was central to the first third of the book, and we didn't have answers. I felt that was missing, and the fact we were spoon fed answers makes me a bit concerned that the writers do not trust the audience to follow along. <br /><br />Otherwise I'm intrigued, and will continue to watch. <br /><br />Thank you for the review, I love coming here and reading the thoughts of Doux Reviews writers after watching something good, bad or wonderful!Samantha M.
