Quote 4

[Simon's] face was so familiar [Clary] could have traced its lines in her sleep. (2.161)

This is sweet, but it's more like brother/sister love than the romantic love Simon desires. If only he was her real brother, like Jace, (spoiler alert!) then maybe she would have romantic feelings toward him…

Quote 5

[Clary] knew she wasn't beautiful like her mother was. To be beautiful you had to be willowy and tall. (2.50)

Says who?

Quote 6

The floor was littered with discarded balls of paper, a sure sign that her creative juices weren't flowing the way she'd hoped. (2.2)

Little wads of paper: evidence of creative constipation. Clary needs more inspirational fiber.
