OP said: "especially when I think how much passion she has for writing"

I can see where you would think that, but after you read further than the original trilogy you'll find this just isn't true. Unfortunately, in both the (blatant cash cow grab) continuation of the original Mortal Instruments Trilogy and the Infernal Devices trilogy, she merely recycles the characters, plot points, etc. And man did she overuse metaphors terribly in City of Fallen Angels. That one just read like it needed at least one more edit before it was published. And that rushed feeling made the "let's milk this for all its worth" angle seem even more plausible.

Personally, after enjoying the first trilogy, and then being utterly disappointed by the other spinoffs, I'm no longer sinking anymore money into her books or writing.

I think OP meant eating.
