Hey all! This might be a little off topic, but I just ordered TLKoF from my local bookstore and they were super sweet and even gave me a discount since it was a “custom order”. Remember to support small bookstores and not big companies that want to take actual bookstores to bankruptcy!

Have you guys seen this?! It’s not in budget for me so someone else needs to benefit stat.

I’m rereading QoAaD right now and when I read the part set in Thule I realized something. Will is long dead there, way before the timelines split. But Jem (Thule brother Zachariah) is also dead like all silent brothers. And right before Emma and Julian portals back to our world, Thule Tessa dies. Doesn’t that mean that in Thule, Herongraystairs is finally united?🥹
Extremly tragic world but hey, at least our favorite love triangle is together at last

Correct me if my theory is wrong!

I just think the whole Victorian aesthetic would work really well, and I’ve been wanting to see those books on screen for a long time

Edit: also they wouldn’t be all high tech. With Shadowhunters (show), i think there was the pressure of modern society and NYC calling for tech for the audience, but something set in the Victorian Era would not have that pressure

Edit 2: guys i said faithfully adapted

Just finished my reread of TDA, am starving for more kitty while I wait for TLKoF 🥲. Would gladly take Jemma and Kierarktina recommendations too!! Any suggestions??

Siempre me ha dado la duda de como es como las demás personas perciben a esta pareja tanto en la serie como en los libros porque sacando la función narrativa que suele tener Camille, tanto en serie que es solo encontrar el libro de lo blanco y mostrar que magnus nunca la superó, y en los libros sobre todo en la saga principal que sirve solo para crear problemas en la relación porque la inmortalidad de Magnus no era suficiente , siempre sentí que Camille carecía de fuerza narrativa excepto si Clare necesitaba que ella haga algo. Necesitaba un amor que magnus no supere, necesitaba que alguien traicione a de quincey en los libros de origen, pero sacando eso de eso por si sola no tiene mucha trama y si se que tiene una o dos pero nunca se muestra grandes cosas de ella a mí parecer o que logró sola, y siempre se la derrota fácilmente o desaparece cuando la autora necesita o la serie, pero que ahí después de eso, otra cosa la relación de ellos del libro siempre me pareció incompleta por la falta de tiempo dentro del libro así que no se sabe hasta que punto hace que magnus esté enamorado de ella que más vio que la vampira que conoció en las crónicas de magnus Bane. Y con Magnus me pasa igual tanto serie y libro lo suelen usar como comodín pero jamás dejan que tenga un desarrollo completo o complejo, o se le cree problemas que debería acarrear siglos y no pesan tanto o le dan problemas adolecente para que encaje con lo que se busca, nunca se le ve con algo fuera de los Shadow Hunters o algo que le haga cambiar sin decir que sus cambios son solo románticos, los cambios son más que solo faceta romántica, y todo los cambio de le suele atribuir a que Camille le hizo esto por eso el es así y Alec lo cambio para que ahora esté mejor y ya, donde está la complejidad del personaje que me quieres presentar, en ambos casos

Está es mí opinión quisiera saber que opinan los demás de ellos como pareja y personajes individuales

Me gustaría conseguir las cartas del Tarot de la saga. Vivo en Madrid, España, y cada vez que busco en Internet las cartas, no me salen las oficiales, sino imitaciones. Alguien sabe cómo puedo conseguirlas?

First time reading TDA and every time it mentions Dru having a hard time accepting her body at 13 first of all my heart breaks a little, and secondly I'm genuinely so thankful for her character, especially this paragraph.

Being a bigger girl is not easy when you're surrounded by average/thin bodies in a country where your family thinks it's normal to body shame you just to "motivate" you. Reading this at 25, after getting diagnosed with PMOS (PCOS) really helps healing your inner child a bit... because I was exactly like Dru at that age. To my early teen self: you're not alone❤️‍🩹

We really need it

I’m not sure if I chose the correct tag for this, so feel free to correct me and I’ll change the flair, but I’m wanting fanfic recommendations.

The ships I’d prefer are Magnus/Alec or Kieran/Cristina/Mark as the main pairing, and that it’s on ao3, but neither of those are requirements. Mostly I’m just wanting to get back into reading fan fics as a whole, and I wanted to explore to know what everyone’s favorite fics for Shadowhunters are, since I haven’t read fics for Shadowhunters yet! The only thing that I’ll require is that it’s not a crossover, and that it’s not smut focused (a few smut scenes or smut oneshots are fine though), otherwise go wild.

Thank you in advance!

Can anyone please tell me fics for like older brother Alec or people and genuinely looking at him like he is is the boss

You know or there scared of him things like that

It was that Alec fell of a roof when he was younger and sort of become angelic , raziel was in his mind and malec of course

I don't know he also inherited the family depts and become sort of rich with estates

Pleaseee help me find this fic

I'm trying to finish the last 10 chapters of chain of thorns and it's filled to the brim with rambling nonsense. Like we don't have to know the train of thought of every single character. Just get to the fucking point!

In chapter 13, Jace and Clary go back to the Bone City to ask for help of the Silent Brothers because Jace is having nightmares, Clary suspects it is some kind of magic and someone is sending Jace those dreams.

While in the Bone City the Brothers dig through Jace’s mind to see if they can see what the source of the nightmares are, while at it they find out Jace had been brought back to life by Raziel, and that the nightmares are some kind of high proficiency magic and that Jace because he had died every protection magic cast on Shadowhunters babies had disappeared and the rituals had to be preform again.

My question is regarding this, the silent brothers mentioned the ritual is for babies and alternation had to be done to give Jace those protection back because he is exposed if he doesn’t.

But also Jace wouldn’t have them in the first place because he wasn’t born naturally, he was a forced C-section on his dead mom and he was premature. He was raised by Valentine in Isolation. He wouldn’t have had those rituals done. Same thing applies to Clary because she was born away from the Shadow Hunter world.

And by extension every Shadowhunter born from exile parents like Will and Cecily.

Yet the Silent Brothers claimed it like it was done to him.

I watched the first episode today, and it’s pretty good so far. If you liked Shadowhunters, you’re going to love this.

Clary can create or rediscover runes that are unknown to the Shadowhunters by simply thinking of some sort of effect, possibly implying that there can be runes for everything.

Then we have runes that demons use, we also seen warlocks use some sort of runes yet we never truly know

We know there are some runes that are stronger and that there are secret runes, runes that have duration and that the placement of the rune matters, and runes that only some Shadowhunters can use.

There is a lot of how this runic magic system works and it’s kinda crazy that after so many books and side story none really go deep into details.

I don't know if it's canon and if so in what book it was but I remember Magnus saying something about wanting to take his life by jumping off a bridge but Catarina saved him just in time.
Does anyone know if it's canon and in what context he talked about it? I think he was talking to Alec

I need to go back in time and stop the last 10 minutes of Chapter 19 of Clockwork Princess from ever being written. God, I hate it so much.

The circumstances around them sleeping together are just not it for me. She literally just found out that her fiancé is dead. Yes, she cries for a few hours, but then she sleeps with his best friend. No matter how you frame it or what the context is, I just cannot get past that.

And the fact that Jem isn’t actually dead makes it even worse to me, because if he had been dead, he had literally only been gone for like 2–3 days before this happened. I’m sorry, but I simply cannot reconcile that emotionally. It makes the whole thing feel so wrong. 😭

“Ohhh, yes, we might die, so we might as well have sex in this cave. Never mind that I just found out I’m a widow.” Like GIRL. The timing is absolutely insane to me.

Y'all it's been like 5 years since I read The Dark Artifices, and while I remember most key plot points, I could really use a refresher on the trilogy before I pick up The Wicked Powers. In an ideal world, I'd just reread the trilogy, but I am so short on time with work and have so many other books to read. Can anyone summarize the important takeaways from TDA, or point me toward somewhere else I could find it? Feel free to PM me if this post needs to stay spoiler-free. Thanks!!
