The Mortal Instruments: City of Ashes

     In the book I am reading The City of Ashes by Cassandra Clare Jace has been thinking of his father Valentine and of his newly found sister Clary.  Valentine is regaining his army and energy and plans a combat which would doom everyone and everything. So when Jace starts believing in him without knowing  his plan his adoptive mother ends up kicking him out for her safety. With no where to go he goes and picks a fight with the werewolves. Not responding to anyone or calming down they call Clary. When they see one another they look at each other with a mixed of emotions both wishing deep down that they were not related but something more. 

     The conflict in my book so far is that Jace is focusing too much on Valentine than the rest of his problems. He can't deal with his adoptive mother being offensive towards Valentine even if he had done terrible stuff in the past. The only things that matters to him is finally noticing why he hadn't seen the similarities between him and Valentine.  Another conflict that both Jace and Clary have are the mixed feelings they have for one another. They are supposed to feel like brother and sister but they just can't seem to wrap their heads around that and wish they were not related at all.
