QUOTE:

At the top of the page she had written "City of Bones." [...] "Why do you call it that?" She shrugged her shoulders. "Because we're setting out the streets and the blocks of what will become a city to us," she said, [...]. "At least while we're working here it will feel like it. Our little city."
