Isabelle Newton i saw this tweet from cassandra clare (I'm not sure how long ago) and she said she kind of shipped Ty and Livvy and i have this whole theory about how Ty isn't really a blackthorn so I ship Kit and Ty the most but i guess tivvy is my backup (if it is actually incest then Ky all the way!)
omg +Reyloshippers that's kinda messed up but like maybe? OMG maybe if they weren't siblings ty might finally be convinced to become parabatai with livvy! i feel like they are too close to like each other that way but hey who knows? maybe they go to become parabati but like they start falling for each other like jem and emma and then its like the double up and lessoned learned thingy. im reading too much into this feel free to not listen to any of this, it probs wont happen XD
Jace: After six books I finally got laid Will: Well some of us are more fortunate than others. Third cough book cough cough Jules: I got laid in book one. Jace and Will: *stares angrily*
When I read the last part when Emma tries to convince Julian that she doesn't love him, I immediately thought: "IT'S THE HERONDALE SITUATION ALL OVER AGAIN."
Yes! I immediately thought of *TID SPOILER* when will has to make sure Tessa doesn't love him so she doesn't die and now Emma is doing the same thing to Julian but I know I KNOW it's not gonna end well
The moment Tessa started giving her that stupid advice about how to stop someone loving you, I was instantly like "EMMA DO NOT DO IT DONT YOU DARE PULL A WILL HERONDALE OR I WILL DIE" and then SHE DID THE WILL HERONDALE METHOD AND I DIED
In TID Magnus walked in on Wessa, in TMI, Magnus also walked in on Clace. In TDA, Malcolm walked in on Jemma. Like, warlocks have a thing for walking in on people
i love when Emma did a Will Herondale and decided that the only way to keep him safe was to make him hate her. I'm so excited seeing another Kit (it's a requirement to at least have one Herondale in a shadowhunter book/novella). i hope there are more duck jokes.
I like at the end when Jace is proposing to Clary and they weren't finished and then Magnus just walks in and he said something like "oh I've walked in on your ancestors doing worse this isn't a big deal" I DIED I LOVE MAGNUS
Sparklight 0 I meant Nightshade is evil which Julian figured out. He was putting stuff in his pizza sauce and Cameron told him he was murdering innocent werewolf children.
CRACKPOT THEORY: So like remember when (spoiler ahead) Emma got whipped and she started dreaming of her parents?? Well, her mom said, and I quote her directly "'Steel and temper, daughter,' she said. 'And remember that a blade made by Wayland the Smith can cut anything.'" ..............Could Cortana POSSIBLY be able to CUT through Julian and Emma's Parabatai bond?????????? OMG IDK... Thoughts please!
I saw this idea floating around the Internet before I'd finished the book and so it was always at the back of my mind as I was finishing up the book and I noticed how people (especially the fairies) acted about Cortana so I agree that the sword is going to be the key to freeing them from the dangers of their love/ parabati bond.
+Bri Gutierrez Yeah omg like as i was reading it and like faeries started being like "oh, you have a powerful sword there" i was like hold da fuk up. So throughout the whole book i was like that. And then when emma started dreaming THATS when i like started theorizing.
I just finished the book not even five minutes ago AND I JUST CAN'T DO IT, MAN. Throughout those last few pages I was in hysterics THINKING OUT LOUD "NONONONONONO." AND THAT LAST LINE. OH, THAT LAST LINE. "Why lie?" Excuse me while I choke/scream/laugh/cry. MARK, NO. JUST NO. PUT IT AWAY. Cassandra Clare, you will be the death of me.
Ok so I just finished the book with the added Jace and Clary scene at the end. When Jace proposed to her I was like omg finally! But then they were interrupted and she said that she dreaded telling jace. I'm so scared that they are going to break up because I ship them so hard and it will tear me apart.
+Secret Walrus I thought maybe she dreaded telling him she's pregnant but I thought that with Maia and Jordan too so...plus there's that birth control rune. I don't think they'll break up, but I also don't think they'll get married anytime soon, but Izzy might disagree.
I literally don't see what Mark is up to. He was with Keiran, then flirted with Christine and then Emma. I'm 100% sure he would've hit on everyone else if they weren't related to him. He's like the Jack Harness of Shadowhunters!
+Always a Fangirl I didn't think about Mark as a Captain Jack before, but now I can't stop it. Think about it, like when the Doctor told Jack to stop flirting with everyone and he was like "what? now I can't say hi to people?". That would be awsome.
Aditi Kashyap (Sorry for my english I'm german) But you have to remind that the fear of ducks comes from Edmund Herondale, Wills Father (Bane Chronicles) and Edmund isn't an ancestor of Kit because Kits side of the Herondale family comes from Tobias Herondale (who was born before Edmund) so basically he has nothing to do with the duck thing.
Am I correct that the cover is when Emma is drowning with Cortana? I'm not sure because I thought Cortana was a short bladed sword, but o wasn't sure. It might be Annabel when the water floods her coffin, but I don't see how she would've completely floated out of her grave but there was a bunch of water so it is possible.
It's definitely not Annabel because she had black hair and Cassandra Claire did confirm that that is Emma on the cover, Cortana is a sword but kinda medium in size
I got this mixed up too. Cortana look like the sword in the cover of Lady Midnight. It's Clary they had the short blades sword that she got from Diana Wrayburn in City of Heavenly Fire. (Diana used to work their before the dark war.) and it had something to do with Clary's ancestors or something.
Kit being a Herondale made me lose my shit. The next book... UGH. I need it now. Jace and Clary running the institute was bittersweet for me because it means their growing older and that hurts my heart but it's also so sweet, just like Jem and Tessa not considering themselves Shadowhunters... I was sat in the middle of class when I read the Kieran and Mark make out scene and I had to conceal squeals, it took me so much by surprise. I thought when Cristina left, Mark was going to get beat or taken away or something, but NOPE. LOL Julian by the end was giving me the creeps, what with the whole Emma room and his lies and betrayal to poor Nightshade.): Mark and Emma, not going to lie I'm excited about that. The Jem lecture freaked me out, not good... Finding it it was Malcolm hurt my heart. I trusted him because of Magnus (got a little suspicious when he twitchy around Magnus though.) Couldn't help but sympathize with Malcolms revenge plot though. I don't trust Perfect Diego, he has that weird injury that makes me think Malcolm and his magic. The whip scene was so sad, it broke my heart. Magnus: "I've walked in on your ancestors doing worse." ANOTHER MALEC BABY. Omg. This book... I'm a mess.
See, I think that maybe the dark magic didn't so much affect Emma as it might have affected Julian. They can obviously feel what the others feels WAY more acutely than normal (Like Jace & Alec with the heavenly fire. That was a bit scary, especially for Alec.) and towards the end of the book Julian seemed much more aggressive, RUTHLESS, and like...demanding than he had been. What if the dark magic corrupted him somehow..? And with Emma trying to break his heart, just warping him worse. And can we talk about Ty and Kit because I have a feeling something is gonna happen with them. A storms a-brewin, I can tell.
I was getting suspicious about Kit's role in the story, especially when they mention his blonde hair. And then as soon as those demons attacked and he jumps and was like "woah that's weird" I dropped the book and screamed "OH MY GOD HE'S A HERONDALE!!!!!" 😂 and then Tessa calls him Christopher and I knew I was right haha all the Julian and Emma tension was amazing! And I super duper ship Mark and Christina.
I just finished the audio book and Cassie is an angel because there are 100 other stories in this series and post book depression can be suppressed. I read TID and TMI. Still not over Clockwork Princess. THE EPILOGUE WHY
Can't wait for LM crackpot theories. Can't wait for Lord of Shadows!!!!!!!!! *SPOILERS below answering Christine's question:* The birth control rune lasts 3 months and Emma put it on while in a relationship with Cameron Ashdown
My favorite moment ever was the half-Julian-Emma-kiss, I loved it And the heartbreaking one? Obv at the end, when Emma shows Jules her "feelings"... I just felt so sorry for him
I personally love Julian soooooo much. It must have been hard to take care of all those kids and he's just so strong. Also, I think I cried when Cristina said how much she wanted a parabatai and how it hurts when she sees parabatai together, because she wants something like that. But I must say that my fav part was in the extra story at the end when Magnus walks into a closet to talk to Jace and Clary. Jace: Magnus, this isn't really a good time Magnus: I've walked in on your ancestors doing worse cough cough Will cough cough Tessa *SPOILERS! LEAVE IF YOU HAVENT READ THIS PART* And Jace asks clary if she would marry him, but at the very end, Clary thinks "When they got back, she would have to give him her answer. She dreaded it" IS CLARY GOING TO SAY NO?!?!?!
Ikr I was just thinking of Will and Tessa right then haha Jace you have no idea just how bad you're ancestors have been. I mean poor Magnus had to walk in on Wessa TWICE. And yeah the ending totally threw me off!!! Why the hell was Clary dreading it?! CLARY YOU HAVE TO SAY YES DAMMIT
@@nj66666 She says no *SPOILER AHEAD...WARNING. YOU IN ADVANCE* She gets little snippets in the form of dreams that she is going to die soon...she thinks it would only hurt jace more when she diea if they were married
Ugh I finished this book a few days ago and every time a read a Cassie book I feel like a husk for a while. When I finished CoHF I was a mess. I'm a mess rn. I've watched this review 4 times in 2 days. Help.
I love how the birth control rune was a direct reference to city of fallen angels where izzy asks clary if she's slept with jace, then also says something along the lines of "you would have thought the Angel would have given us a birth control rune, but no dice". I'm also pretty sure regarding the clave's reason why parabatai can't fall in love (because they become mad) is either A) the madness thing is false ~ it happened once and though they didn't go mad, the clave is only saying that because they're jealous of the new power that these parabatai have and therefore they forbid it. Honestly, the clave is so problematic and that seems like exactly the kind of thing that they would do. or B) this going mad thing happened once, and it turned out really badly and the clave didn't know if the madness was induced by the personalities of these parabatai or if it was induced by the parabatai falling in love itself, and it was so bad that they weren't interested in finding out as long as it doesn't happen again.
I loved reading about the TMI crew in a long conversation. Also that vampire pizza delivery dude was wearing a TMI shirt! Simon's old band made it big time , that was so cool!!! Kit being a Herondale I totally guessed it, I remember reading the prologue and reading it from this random dude that Cassie NEVER mentioned before I was "yup this dude is a Herondale." and Jem and Tessa are in the prologue as well so that made all the confirmation I needed! ! You mention a boy in his twenties with black hair and a sliver streak in it that my baeby Jem!!
I was just wondering ... What did Magnus mean when he said, at the very beginning, that he had taken part at two weddings where Julian and Emma had been too? Is there something more or was it just put there without reason?
You wanna know what I'd totally be down with? A series of short stories on the Circle. I just wanna see fetus Jocelyn and Valentine so I can draw similarities between Clary and Sebastian, ya know?
In one of the other shadowhunter series it says that if you disfigure a rune enough it stops working. In lady midnight it says Cortana can cut anything. What if she just cuts the rune.
I have never read a Cassandra Clare book without marathoning it. The only time I had to wait for her books is City of Heavenly Fire and i felt so disconnected after waiting a long time of it! And I had such an AMAZING time marathon reading all of the mortal instrument and infernal devices books all in a row when I first discovered her books! And I don't wanna start waiting years for each book in this Dark artifices trilogy. I just wanna marathon it after the series is finished but IM SO HYPED ABOUT IT! BUT.. BUT.. i don't know what to do now
+Natalie Herondale I feel your struggle... for me the fear of being spoiled pretty much always overweighs the want to marathon:D also LM is absolutely fabulous and I think the series will be worth the wait and you would miss out on all the fun fan theories that turn out to be complete BS:D
WHAT IF IN The Wicked Powers CLARY CREATES A TIME TRAVEL RUNE AND ALL THE CHARACTERS FROM THE PAST SERIES COME BACK OMG OMG OMG THAT IS MAKING ME CRY RIGHT NOW HOLY FUCK IMAGINE ALL THE PROTAGONISTS AND ANTAGONISTS FIGHTING HOLY FUCK
Pretty much all of your theories, thoughts, reactions...THANK GOD I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE!!! LITERALLY my thoughts, reactions EVERYTHING!! Like-Thank you!!! I finished the book about less than an hour ago and I am dying for someone to rant with since none of my other friends have finished the book yet. Uggghhhh?! I would have more words but your video seriously captured everything! Anyhow..I feel a bit better.
CRACKPOT THEORY: They made a point to mention at least twice that Cortana was strong enough to sever anything. Glorious severed the twinning bond between Jace & Sebastian back in COHF. What if Cortana can sever the parabatai bond? Also, I highly doubt it's a coincidence that the LAST CHAPTER was named "Sever My Soul"
I adore Ty with everything in me. I feel like his character has so much depth and I relate a lot to his personality and struggles in social situations. I just love him.
I like the theory that Clary could create a rune that ended the parabatai bond without killing one of them. Kind of like signing the papers that finalize a divorce. It would be physically painful in the way that a dedicated marriage-turned-divorce would be emotionally painful, and then it'd be over.
I read the mortal instruments series and thought I never wanted to read another book in the shadow hunter world but this video made me want to read this book and get back into Cassandra Claire’s books
@@humairahaider4188 yesss I just don’t really want to read the infernal devices. I’m a lesbian and Will sounds like a character I will despise even after I learn about his past lol also the period book thing isn’t really my thing. But this series that Christina is talking about in this video I’d definitely read.
I love how the lines are taken directly from the poem _Annabel Lee_ and put in the book. For example how in the epilogue Cassandra writes "in her tomb by the sounding sea".
so I have two theories: 1st if Emma's sword can cut through anything can it sever the parabatai bond? 2nd: what if Jules becomes a bad guy and it becomes a Jules v Emma type thing? (I don't like where my mind goes sometimes, this one hurts my heart)
I WAS LITERALLY IN TEARS IN THE BEGINING WHEN YOU KEPT SAYING "Why are you ignoring me" IT WAS HILARIOUS I totally agree though... everyone needs to read Cassandra's books :P
Tiberius Blackthorn is literally one of the most interesting characters I've ever read about in a Cassandra Clare book. He's so unique in a way that other characters are not and I just love him and he deserves the entire world
I’m finally reading The Dark Artifices because I have time now... and I love your book talks so much!! I ship Christine and Diego... And I love the mystery aspect of Lady Midnight. Also, Julian is soooo shady, but it works. The Nightshade scapegoat was sad but kinda understandable. Thanks for the book talks!
Claudio Verdugo remember that dream when Emma's mother told her that Cortana can cut anything? So there's this theorie that Emma is going to use Cortana to end the parabatai bond
I believe there is a connection in the story from Tales from the Shadowhunter Academy about James (Will and Tessa's son) and Christopher (Henry and Charlotte's son) relating to TiBerius. More so Ty and James. It was discovered that James had a unique power and I believe Ty has the same power that just hasn't been discovered. Let me know what you think !! :)
I haven't finished the book, I'm in page 50 because I just got the book but I read Shadowhunter's academy and I think Kit is part of the lost Herondales because at the beginning in the prolog he says that the sight runs in his family and I've never heard of mundane families having the sight as a hereditary thing.
OMG THEORY TIME!!! I just finished reading the book and I remember this one part where Emma was dreaming and her father said something like Cortana can cut through anything! What if her sword could cut the parabatai tie between Julian and Emma?! Omg!!!
+Martina Cardenas when Jace was connected to Sebastian, it was sort of like a demonic parabatai rune and all he had to do was cut through it to get rid of it. I know parabatai runes are probably more powerful but if cortana can cut through anything then it could probably also break their parabatai runes
I literally screamed in the middle of the night when I read the part where it said that Kit was the lost Herondale! Because at the beginning of the book, as I was reading, I thought about how similiar Kit was to Jace, and how he was introduced to us. so ya. now we have another Herondale! hooray! and if Kit and Ty aren't cannon I'll just start a riot, no big deal.
Have you read the short on Simon and Izzy's engagement party? where (spoilers) Jace proposes to Clary but she doesn't get a chance to answer him and later says she "dreaded" giving him the answer. WhAT?
There was also that whole thing about how Cortana can cut anything (??) and I was thinking that it would be the weapon that could cut the parabatai mark...
I finally read the book and loved it so much. can't wait for this series to continue . so can't wait for her next trilogy The Last Hours about the next generation of the Infernal series, and I'm just so dang hype about all her books and love it all gahhh . Your review explains my feelings about the series so much !
There's the whole Sizzy engagement (I really wanted it to be Malec or Clace who where getting married but oh well). Also every time they mentioned Sebby my heart stopped. When they mentioned Hodge being a traitor so Jace and the Lightwoods I just thought you have no right. All the Emma and Julian scenes that escalated a lot quicker than Wessa and Clace. I just can't this book was so good.
it actually is specified in the epilogue that annabel lee is awakened by "the magic of the ocean" and "the blood of the one who had loved her, a stranger magic still", so basically maybe blackthorn blood wasn't shed aaaand also i think malcolm is as dead as he can be ( i hooope ). and omg i enjoyed these 27 minutes so incredibly much, it was smth like therapy to me.
Haha I love the Blackthorn motto too, it even made my video as well. I also absolutely love the tarot cards you have in the background! I see them everywhere on booktube/bookstagram and can literally never find them.
Does anyone think Annabel Blacktorn will be the main villain in “The Dark Artifices" or will it be, say, the Wild Hunt, Seelie Queen, and the Unseelie King? or someone else?
in the fight where Emma like ejects Malcolm into the sea portal thing it reminded me of the fight scene in the TMI movie when Clary kicks Valentine into the portal
You seem so delighted during this whole video, it's great. Also, I thought maybe Clary could make a rune to limit their parabatai power--problem solved!
I know you weren't thrilled with Julian but he was my favorite character! Everything about him made me so happy, and I think he's really relatable because he's in love with his family and will do anything to protect them. How he ended up running the institute and taking over for Arthur just to ensure everyone stays together. Throughout the whole book, Jules had me dying and just seeing this different style of character made me really happy. I love Emma but she reminds me of Jace a lot so I felt that I already knew her. Being able to delve deeper into Julian's character every page just added so much to the story as a whole. I was kind of shocked with the whole Nightshade thing but I think that his crimes were so little they cannot punish him for much, so I have a feeling he will be back.
oh man, i just finished this book and i have so many things in my mind which you basically mostly address. I just hope that despite Mark and Emma being together it doesnt affect Julian and Mark's relationship too much, i love those too. Also I love Julian very much and he has had it so hard since he was a child having to take the role as parent and love his brothers and sisters twice as much as anyone, run the institute, and basically take care of his mad uncle as well, i just want him to be alright. I feel like part of Ty wanting Mark to take over Julian's duties and take care of them is because he loves Julian (despite not showing it sometimes) and sees how exhausted he is and how much he needs help, needs his older brother ;_; like they all need Mark so much but specially Julian.I really loved seeing whenever all the Blackthorns bonded in scenes. Im also excited to see how this love square thing goes down the next book lol i do ship Christina and Mark and i loved the scenes whenever Mark was jealous of Perfect Diego. Im also very excited that we are going to get to know Christopher Herondale. God when Jem and Tessa were with Emma and Kit in the car on the way to the institute i just had all these feels, like omg this is the Carstairs and Herondales here together old and new generations helping each other, creys ;_;. Also we need Helen Blackthorn! The Blackthorns need their sister! and omg the Church and Jem feels! Also i need Jessa to babies!! lawd
I know I’m SO late to the series, but I just wanna say that this first book was a work of art. I loved every second of it. And I also just wanna say that the Emma and Julian situation at the end gave me MASSIVE Will and Tessa vibes. I was like “OH NO, AGAIN? REALLY?! ITS WILL AND TESSA ALL OVER AGAIN! WHY” My mind was making all sorts of parallels. And Mark and Julian Blackthorn are baby and I love them.
Lady Midnight is probably my favourite first book in a series and third favourite Shadowhunter book. Also scholomance is pronounced like scholar. And Jaime is pronounced High-may. Do you ship Kitty? (Kit/Ty)
Michelle San Reis Interesting. The only time I've heard the name before is in stuff with Blue Beetle and they always call him High-may. Maybe it's the anglicised version?
Karkat Vantas I really don't know, it's probably because if you see the name and read it in English it looks like that's what it would sound like, but I'm pretty sure it's High-meh. I mean, I have Spanish relatives and I can't imagine them pronouncing the name as High-may.
I just realized Jace's full name is Jonathan Christopher Herondale and Kit's full name is Christopher Jonathan Herondale
LOL shadowhunters and their unoriginal names
True
That was all I could think of reading that xD
+Small Town Storiez LOLOL #TWINNING
+Small Town Storiez I think shadowhunters have a thing for JC or CJ
Basically what happened:
Ty: is literally holding a knife to Kit's throat
Kit: wow he's beautiful
I KNEW I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE WHO SHIPPED IT
+Reyloshippers ITS REAL ITS REALLY REAL BUT LIKE IS IT GUNNA BE A PARABATI THINGY OR LIKE LOVEY DOVEY
Isabelle Newton i saw this tweet from cassandra clare (I'm not sure how long ago) and she said she kind of shipped Ty and Livvy and i have this whole theory about how Ty isn't really a blackthorn so I ship Kit and Ty the most but i guess tivvy is my backup (if it is actually incest then Ky all the way!)
omg +Reyloshippers that's kinda messed up but like maybe? OMG maybe if they weren't siblings ty might finally be convinced to become parabatai with livvy! i feel like they are too close to like each other that way but hey who knows? maybe they go to become parabati but like they start falling for each other like jem and emma and then its like the double up and lessoned learned thingy. im reading too much into this feel free to not listen to any of this, it probs wont happen XD
Isabelle Newton no only if they're not siblings if they are then hell no
Jace: After six books I finally got laid
Will: Well some of us are more fortunate than others. Third cough book cough cough
Jules: I got laid in book one.
Jace and Will: *stares angrily*
Anna May so true😄😄
Lmao
Jules wouldn't ever talk about Emma like that :)
I mean julian does have herondale blood in him after all. It is expected
When I read the last part when Emma tries to convince Julian that she doesn't love him, I immediately thought: "IT'S THE HERONDALE SITUATION ALL OVER AGAIN."
exactly, herondale family is a disaster😂 always having trouble with love
Yes! I immediately thought of *TID SPOILER* when will has to make sure Tessa doesn't love him so she doesn't die and now Emma is doing the same thing to Julian but I know I KNOW it's not gonna end well
The moment Tessa started giving her that stupid advice about how to stop someone loving you, I was instantly like "EMMA DO NOT DO IT DONT YOU DARE PULL A WILL HERONDALE OR I WILL DIE" and then SHE DID THE WILL HERONDALE METHOD AND I DIED
Technically though Julian is a Herondale
Sore Wa Chigau Zo yep lucie herondale (will's daughter) is his ancestor so yeah makes sense.... herondales are CURSED
In TID Magnus walked in on Wessa, in TMI, Magnus also walked in on Clace. In TDA, Malcolm walked in on Jemma. Like, warlocks have a thing for walking in on people
lol
+Unicorn magnus didnt walk on jemma , malcolm saw them and magnus does walk on clace but
+Bhavana Chintala Simon and Alec have a habit of doing that as well.
We also have to remember how much Church has seen...he's probably walked in on everything and we don't even know...sneaky elderly cat
I agree. I also thought the same exact thing
i love when Emma did a Will Herondale and decided that the only way to keep him safe was to make him hate her. I'm so excited seeing another Kit (it's a requirement to at least have one Herondale in a shadowhunter book/novella). i hope there are more duck jokes.
Me too we need more duck jokes!
Alda Keza 'did a Will Herondale'
Unfortunately Kit seems to have a thing with swans instead of ducks lol
"He's not like Jace, he doesn't have a condom." Hahahahaha
"One of those 50 blackthorn children"😂😂😂😂😂😂
I like at the end when Jace is proposing to Clary and they weren't finished and then Magnus just walks in and he said something like "oh I've walked in on your ancestors doing worse this isn't a big deal" I DIED I LOVE MAGNUS
Same I died laughing
+LightsCameraAGz Was it in Lady midnight? I haven' t read it. How did I miss that?
+Nora C It's at the very end of the book after the acknowledgments.
+Nora C It is actually like an extra story
Rachel Vrbas I have seen now. Thank you very much :)
Maybe Julian arresting the Nightshade is one of the first signs of loving your parabatai turns you into a monster?
That's what I think too!
What the actual sht. That could be possible.
I THOUGHT OF THAT TOO
Nah, in QOAAD we learn that he’s actually evil
Sparklight 0 I meant Nightshade is evil which Julian figured out. He was putting stuff in his pizza sauce and Cameron told him he was murdering innocent werewolf children.
CRACKPOT THEORY: So like remember when (spoiler ahead) Emma got whipped and she started dreaming of her parents?? Well, her mom said, and I quote her directly "'Steel and temper, daughter,' she said. 'And remember that a blade made by Wayland the Smith can cut anything.'" ..............Could Cortana POSSIBLY be able to CUT through Julian and Emma's Parabatai bond?????????? OMG IDK... Thoughts please!
OMG! OMG! OMG OMG OMG! I AM SOOOOOO WITH YOU ON THIS! I WILL HOLD ON TO THIS THEORY TILL THE END!
I saw this idea floating around the Internet before I'd finished the book and so it was always at the back of my mind as I was finishing up the book and I noticed how people (especially the fairies) acted about Cortana so I agree that the sword is going to be the key to freeing them from the dangers of their love/ parabati bond.
+Ishwariya Gopal OMG HELL YES! im not the only one!!!!
+Bri Gutierrez Yeah omg like as i was reading it and like faeries started being like "oh, you have a powerful sword there" i was like hold da fuk up. So throughout the whole book i was like that. And then when emma started dreaming THATS when i like started theorizing.
+The Book Universe OMG so glad someone els thought of this too. As soon as I read it can cut anything I got a little too excited.
When they talked about rising someone from the dead my first thought was "dear God... Not Sebastian ..."
Omg me too! I was like no please let him rest!!
+Jesenia Contreras agreed ! I'm still afraid she might though. Like what if at the end of the entire series he just shows up hahah no thank you

OH, THAT LAST LINE. "Why lie?" Excuse me while I choke/scream/laugh/cry. MARK, NO. JUST NO. PUT IT AWAY. Cassandra Clare, you will be the death of me.
I accepted Cassandra Clare's going to kill me a long time ago

I just want to point out that Clary made a condom rune.
while probably having shame shame .

Well, you can't always count on Jace to for some reason sneak condoms into the demon realms.

Mikaela S It's mentioned in Lady Midnight that she made a controversial birth control rune.
Okay, I low-key want Kit and Ty to become a thing... like, cute fifteen year old boyfriends...
+Katie Barnes ME TOO OMGOODNESS

YES same
I have a feeling that's going to happen. If I remember correctly Kit thought Ty looked beautiful and Ty himself seems fascinated by Kit.
are people forgetting that Emma's mom said *Cortana can cut anything* ?

@@anindobagchi3408 Thanks for reading my mind!
I literally don't see what Mark is up to. He was with Keiran, then flirted with Christine and then Emma. I'm 100% sure he would've hit on everyone else if they weren't related to him. He's like the Jack Harness of Shadowhunters!
+Always a Fangirl I didn't think about Mark as a Captain Jack before, but now I can't stop it. Think about it, like when the Doctor told Jack to stop flirting with everyone and he was like "what? now I can't say hi to people?". That would be awsome.
FIRST OF ALL IT'S CHRISTINA
When Emma began to break Julian's heart because she thought it would help them I was like "WHAT THE WILL HERONDALE?!"
And then when Jem was telling her why parabatai can't fall in love because they go mad from power I was like "TO LOVE IS TO DESTROY"
@@ToriaLovesBooks ah yes, classic herondale quote
I knew the room that Julian kept had paintings and drawings of Emma when we found out that no one was allowed inside.
if they want to prove that kit is a Herodale or not just show him a duck..I'm sure that proves everything without DNA test xD😂😂
Yep! Ask him if ducks are evil or not! Answer yes= Herondale - Answer no = Defo not a Herondale
I want Jace to come in the LA institute and do this
Aditi Kashyap (Sorry for my english I'm german) But you have to remind that the fear of ducks comes from Edmund Herondale, Wills Father (Bane Chronicles) and Edmund isn't an ancestor of Kit because Kits side of the Herondale family comes from Tobias Herondale (who was born before Edmund) so basically he has nothing to do with the duck thing.
Aditi Kashyap Perfect way to determine it!
Mal PA Kit dislikes swans he says something about it in Lord of Shadows
Am I correct that the cover is when Emma is drowning with Cortana? I'm not sure because I thought Cortana was a short bladed sword, but o wasn't sure. It might be Annabel when the water floods her coffin, but I don't see how she would've completely floated out of her grave but there was a bunch of water so it is possible.
I*
Annabel has black hair, so yeah the cover is Emma cortana has always been huge that's why they need to travel with it in the trunk of thecar
+Kassi Savage car*
It's definitely not Annabel because she had black hair and Cassandra Claire did confirm that that is Emma on the cover, Cortana is a sword but kinda medium in size
I got this mixed up too. Cortana look like the sword in the cover of Lady Midnight. It's Clary they had the short blades sword that she got from Diana Wrayburn in City of Heavenly Fire. (Diana used to work their before the dark war.) and it had something to do with Clary's ancestors or something.
The makeout scene in his painting room, which I totally predicted was full of emma, was the best thing ever!
Skam anyone lol
So I can only comment on how beautiful you look and the backdrop is ON POINT! Must finish books to get to this one!
+Tashapolis THANKS NATASHA =D
*****SPOILER*****
YOU FORGOT OUR BRAND NEW SHIP!!!! KITTY!! (AKA Kit and Ty!!!!!!)
KITTY YESSS
YASSS...KITTY
THAT'S CUTE
I love the ship name kitttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttty
M_29a YASS
Kit being a Herondale made me lose my shit. The next book... UGH. I need it now. Jace and Clary running the institute was bittersweet for me because it means their growing older and that hurts my heart but it's also so sweet, just like Jem and Tessa not considering themselves Shadowhunters... I was sat in the middle of class when I read the Kieran and Mark make out scene and I had to conceal squeals, it took me so much by surprise. I thought when Cristina left, Mark was going to get beat or taken away or something, but NOPE. LOL
Julian by the end was giving me the creeps, what with the whole Emma room and his lies and betrayal to poor Nightshade.): Mark and Emma, not going to lie I'm excited about that. The Jem lecture freaked me out, not good... Finding it it was Malcolm hurt my heart. I trusted him because of Magnus (got a little suspicious when he twitchy around Magnus though.) Couldn't help but sympathize with Malcolms revenge plot though. I don't trust Perfect Diego, he has that weird injury that makes me think Malcolm and his magic. The whip scene was so sad, it broke my heart. Magnus: "I've walked in on your ancestors doing worse." ANOTHER MALEC BABY. Omg. This book... I'm a mess.
"Are you gonna tell me what's bothering you?"
"No, I'm not gonna tell you what's bothering me,"
"Okay take a left up he-"
"i sLEPT WITH JULIAN"
Oh my god yes that was hilarious
I love how mark hates "Perfect Diego"
See, I think that maybe the dark magic didn't so much affect Emma as it might have affected Julian. They can obviously feel what the others feels WAY more acutely than normal (Like Jace & Alec with the heavenly fire. That was a bit scary, especially for Alec.) and towards the end of the book Julian seemed much more aggressive, RUTHLESS, and like...demanding than he had been. What if the dark magic corrupted him somehow..? And with Emma trying to break his heart, just warping him worse. And can we talk about Ty and Kit because I have a feeling something is gonna happen with them. A storms a-brewin, I can tell.
I'm thinking Annabel is going to be like Katherine Pierce to Malcolm's Damon and be an even bigger villain than him
+Sophie That would be pretty cool because I love Katherine.
I thought this exact thing!! Got major TVD vibes with the wanting to bring a love back to life
I was getting suspicious about Kit's role in the story, especially when they mention his blonde hair. And then as soon as those demons attacked and he jumps and was like "woah that's weird" I dropped the book and screamed "OH MY GOD HE'S A HERONDALE!!!!!" 😂 and then Tessa calls him Christopher and I knew I was right haha all the Julian and Emma tension was amazing! And I super duper ship Mark and Christina.
I ship mark with kerian and christina
I just finished the audio book and Cassie is an angel because there are 100 other stories in this series and post book depression can be suppressed. I read TID and TMI. Still not over Clockwork Princess. THE EPILOGUE WHY
Haha I love her Cristina/Emma reenacting where Emma said she slept with Julian . That was perfect
Can't wait for LM crackpot theories. Can't wait for Lord of Shadows!!!!!!!!!
*SPOILERS below answering Christine's question:*
The birth control rune lasts 3 months and Emma put it on while in a relationship with Cameron Ashdown
My favorite moment ever was the half-Julian-Emma-kiss, I loved it
And the heartbreaking one? Obv at the end, when Emma shows Jules her "feelings"... I just felt so sorry for him
I personally love Julian soooooo much. It must have been hard to take care of all those kids and he's just so strong. Also, I think I cried when Cristina said how much she wanted a parabatai and how it hurts when she sees parabatai together, because she wants something like that. But I must say that my fav part was in the extra story at the end when Magnus walks into a closet to talk to Jace and Clary.
Jace: Magnus, this isn't really a good time
Magnus: I've walked in on your ancestors doing worse
cough cough Will cough cough Tessa
*SPOILERS! LEAVE IF YOU HAVENT READ THIS PART*
And Jace asks clary if she would marry him, but at the very end, Clary thinks "When they got back, she would have to give him her answer. She dreaded it"
IS CLARY GOING TO SAY NO?!?!?!
Ikr I was just thinking of Will and Tessa right then haha Jace you have no idea just how bad you're ancestors have been. I mean poor Magnus had to walk in on Wessa TWICE.
And yeah the ending totally threw me off!!! Why the hell was Clary dreading it?!
CLARY YOU HAVE TO SAY YES DAMMIT
+Nandana J Funny enough is that according to the family tree the Blackthorns are also descended from Will and Tessa
Jessica D maybe Clary can create a rune that transfer the parabatai bond for Emma and Julian to Emma and christana
@@nj66666 She says no
*SPOILER AHEAD...WARNING. YOU IN ADVANCE*
She gets little snippets in the form of dreams that she is going to die soon...she thinks it would only hurt jace more when she diea if they were married
Why can't I find this short story on ebook
Ugh I finished this book a few days ago and every time a read a Cassie book I feel like a husk for a while. When I finished CoHF I was a mess. I'm a mess rn. I've watched this review 4 times in 2 days. Help.
I know the feeling.
Shoutout to Jamie! YESSSS! Bless
+abookutopia POOR JAMIE
+polandbananasBOOKS WHY WAS JAMIE BROUGHT UP???
+Tashapolis NO REASON READ THE BOOK FIRST =D
+abookutopia i thought of jamie too during that scene haha
Wait what if Sebastian's son is Rafe from the short story? Shadowhunters breed true, right? And he's the right age...
Oh. My.Gosh Ahhhhhhhh
*SCREAMS BLOODY MURDER*
Where the hell are those short storys ?!!
Where can I buy those tarot cards???
+Elizabeth Murray TopatoCo.com
Thanks
im excited for kit and ty
+Alana Vidal YES
+Alana Vidal ik when kit was like "he's beautiful" i was like .......... aw yeah i know where this going
+B Saaame. lolol
+Alana Vidal I think that something might happen between Kit and Livvy and Ty will get pissed ;)
I love how the birth control rune was a direct reference to city of fallen angels where izzy asks clary if she's slept with jace, then also says something along the lines of "you would have thought the Angel would have given us a birth control rune, but no dice".
I'm also pretty sure regarding the clave's reason why parabatai can't fall in love (because they become mad) is either
A) the madness thing is false ~ it happened once and though they didn't go mad, the clave is only saying that because they're jealous of the new power that these parabatai have and therefore they forbid it. Honestly, the clave is so problematic and that seems like exactly the kind of thing that they would do.
or
B) this going mad thing happened once, and it turned out really badly and the clave didn't know if the madness was induced by the personalities of these parabatai or if it was induced by the parabatai falling in love itself, and it was so bad that they weren't interested in finding out as long as it doesn't happen again.
nice catch 😊
+Maya Young Yeah, I also thought of that passage when I read LM. It was a cool nod to CoFA. :D
I loved reading about the TMI crew in a long conversation. Also that vampire pizza delivery dude was wearing a TMI shirt! Simon's old band made it big time , that was so cool!!! Kit being a Herondale I totally guessed it, I remember reading the prologue and reading it from this random dude that Cassie NEVER mentioned before I was "yup this dude is a Herondale." and Jem and Tessa are in the prologue as well so that made all the confirmation I needed! ! You mention a boy in his twenties with black hair and a sliver streak in it that my baeby Jem!!
"*HAVE WE LEARNED NOTHING!?*" 😂
I was just wondering ... What did Magnus mean when he said, at the very beginning, that he had taken part at two weddings where Julian and Emma had been too? Is there something more or was it just put there without reason?
Grace Tempest exactly, I was curious about that too
You wanna know what I'd totally be down with? A series of short stories on the Circle. I just wanna see fetus Jocelyn and Valentine so I can draw similarities between Clary and Sebastian, ya know?
In one of the other shadowhunter series it says that if you disfigure a rune enough it stops working. In lady midnight it says Cortana can cut anything. What if she just cuts the rune.
I have never read a Cassandra Clare book without marathoning it. The only time I had to wait for her books is City of Heavenly Fire and i felt so disconnected after waiting a long time of it! And I had such an AMAZING time marathon reading all of the mortal instrument and infernal devices books all in a row when I first discovered her books! And I don't wanna start waiting years for each book in this Dark artifices trilogy. I just wanna marathon it after the series is finished but IM SO HYPED ABOUT IT! BUT.. BUT.. i don't know what to do now
+Natalie Herondale I feel your struggle... for me the fear of being spoiled pretty much always overweighs the want to marathon:D also LM is absolutely fabulous and I think the series will be worth the wait and you would miss out on all the fun fan theories that turn out to be complete BS:D
The Blackthorn blood stuff reminded me of Blood of Olympus where Percy gets a nosebleed and then the world is doomed.
OHMYGOD YES
freaking i knew for a fact that the studio was an emma shrine
I loved the close family in this. it showed the strong bond between families. so cute!!
WHAT IF IN The Wicked Powers CLARY CREATES A TIME TRAVEL RUNE AND ALL THE CHARACTERS FROM THE PAST SERIES COME BACK OMG OMG OMG THAT IS MAKING ME CRY RIGHT NOW HOLY FUCK IMAGINE ALL THE PROTAGONISTS AND ANTAGONISTS FIGHTING HOLY FUCK
Pretty much all of your theories, thoughts, reactions...THANK GOD I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE!!! LITERALLY my thoughts, reactions EVERYTHING!! Like-Thank you!!! I finished the book about less than an hour ago and I am dying for someone to rant with since none of my other friends have finished the book yet. Uggghhhh?! I would have more words but your video seriously captured everything! Anyhow..I feel a bit better.
CRACKPOT THEORY: They made a point to mention at least twice that Cortana was strong enough to sever anything. Glorious severed the twinning bond between Jace & Sebastian back in COHF. What if Cortana can sever the parabatai bond? Also, I highly doubt it's a coincidence that the LAST CHAPTER was named "Sever My Soul"
I adore Ty with everything in me. I feel like his character has so much depth and I relate a lot to his personality and struggles in social situations. I just love him.
I like the theory that Clary could create a rune that ended the parabatai bond without killing one of them. Kind of like signing the papers that finalize a divorce. It would be physically painful in the way that a dedicated marriage-turned-divorce would be emotionally painful, and then it'd be over.
I read the mortal instruments series and thought I never wanted to read another book in the shadow hunter world but this video made me want to read this book and get back into Cassandra Claire’s books
The dark artifices are better than the mortal instruments coming from a crazy emma carstairs fan.
@@humairahaider4188 yesss I just don’t really want to read the infernal devices. I’m a lesbian and Will sounds like a character I will despise even after I learn about his past lol also the period book thing isn’t really my thing. But this series that Christina is talking about in this video I’d definitely read.
@@liallialcroc I haven't read the infernal devices either lol. But yeah tda is really good.
I think Kit is gonna date Ty.... That would be so cute
Omg same. I really hope it happens, it would be adorable.
Or Livvy if he's straight
+Olivia Player their ship name would be kitty
+Lauren Adams they are TWINS!😂😂
Emma Bracken OMG😂😂 I meant KIT and Livvy
I love how the lines are taken directly from the poem _Annabel Lee_ and put in the book. For example how in the epilogue Cassandra writes "in her tomb by the sounding sea".
so I have two theories: 1st if Emma's sword can cut through anything can it sever the parabatai bond? 2nd: what if Jules becomes a bad guy and it becomes a Jules v Emma type thing? (I don't like where my mind goes sometimes, this one hurts my heart)
+Becca Thun oMGGGG I love your theory about Emma's sword.
I read this before any of the other books, oops but I've ordered the mortal instruments set so from now on I am going to read them in order 😂
I WAS LITERALLY IN TEARS IN THE BEGINING WHEN YOU KEPT SAYING "Why are you ignoring me" IT WAS HILARIOUS I totally agree though... everyone needs to read Cassandra's books :P
Tiberius Blackthorn is literally one of the most interesting characters I've ever read about in a Cassandra Clare book. He's so unique in a way that other characters are not and I just love him and he deserves the entire world
"YOU KNOW WHEN YOU DRAW AN 'S' YOU CAN CHANGE IT TO LOOK LIKE THE NUMBER FIVE"
I’m finally reading The Dark Artifices because I have time now... and I love your book talks so much!! I ship Christine and Diego... And I love the mystery aspect of Lady Midnight. Also, Julian is soooo shady, but it works. The Nightshade scapegoat was sad but kinda understandable. Thanks for the book talks!
What if like when they used the angel sword to separate Jace and Sebastian bond. they use a demon sword to cut the parabatai bond
Claudio Verdugo remember that dream when Emma's mother told her that Cortana can cut anything? So there's this theorie that Emma is going to use Cortana to end the parabatai bond
I applaud this theory
WOW, WOW, WOW, this is actually a fantastic idea
I just love the lighting. Its bright, clear, and amazing (x. Love you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I believe there is a connection in the story from Tales from the Shadowhunter Academy about James (Will and Tessa's son) and Christopher (Henry and Charlotte's son) relating to TiBerius. More so Ty and James. It was discovered that James had a unique power and I believe Ty has the same power that just hasn't been discovered. Let me know what you think !! :)
I haven't finished the book, I'm in page 50 because I just got the book but I read Shadowhunter's academy and I think Kit is part of the lost Herondales because at the beginning in the prolog he says that the sight runs in his family and I've never heard of mundane families having the sight as a hereditary thing.
OMG THEORY TIME!!! I just finished reading the book and I remember this one part where Emma was dreaming and her father said something like Cortana can cut through anything! What if her sword could cut the parabatai tie between Julian and Emma?! Omg!!!
+Martina Cardenas when Jace was connected to Sebastian, it was sort of like a demonic parabatai rune and all he had to do was cut through it to get rid of it. I know parabatai runes are probably more powerful but if cortana can cut through anything then it could probably also break their parabatai runes
OMGGG
I literally screamed in the middle of the night when I read the part where it said that Kit was the lost Herondale! Because at the beginning of the book, as I was reading, I thought about how similiar Kit was to Jace, and how he was introduced to us.
so ya.
now we have another Herondale! hooray!
and if Kit and Ty aren't cannon I'll just start a riot, no big deal.
Have you read the short on Simon and Izzy's engagement party? where (spoilers) Jace proposes to Clary but she doesn't get a chance to answer him and later says she "dreaded" giving him the answer. WhAT?
Just finished the series yesterday and I’ve finally finish all the current shadowhunter books so I’m going through all of your book talks
"Doesn't need all their blood...I'm gonna use that." -Rick
smh
damn the nosebleeding rick.
There was also that whole thing about how Cortana can cut anything (??) and I was thinking that it would be the weapon that could cut the parabatai mark...
This was just amazing. Dark artifices definitely went off to a good start
I finally read the book and loved it so much. can't wait for this series to continue . so can't wait for her next trilogy The Last Hours about the next generation of the Infernal series, and I'm just so dang hype about all her books and love it all gahhh . Your review explains my feelings about the series so much !
There's the whole Sizzy engagement (I really wanted it to be Malec or Clace who where getting married but oh well). Also every time they mentioned Sebby my heart stopped. When they mentioned Hodge being a traitor so Jace and the Lightwoods I just thought you have no right. All the Emma and Julian scenes that escalated a lot quicker than Wessa and Clace. I just can't this book was so good.
lol omg true. like when it happened im literally like "WHOOOOOAAA WTF ALREADY?!" and then im like omg yes keep going!
it actually is specified in the epilogue that annabel lee is awakened by "the magic of the ocean" and "the blood of the one who had loved her, a stranger magic still", so basically maybe blackthorn blood wasn't shed aaaand also i think malcolm is as dead as he can be ( i hooope ).
and omg i enjoyed these 27 minutes so incredibly much, it was smth like therapy to me.
'Julian panics, he's not like Jace, he doesn't have a condom handy.' I DIED XD XD XD XD XD XD
Haha I love the Blackthorn motto too, it even made my video as well. I also absolutely love the tarot cards you have in the background! I see them everywhere on booktube/bookstagram and can literally never find them.
Christine do a mini book talk for the short story at the end!!
Does anyone think Annabel Blacktorn will be the main villain in “The Dark Artifices" or will it be, say, the Wild Hunt, Seelie Queen, and the Unseelie King? or someone else?
The birth control rune fades after 3 months and you have to re apply it or re-activate it
in the fight where Emma like ejects Malcolm into the sea portal thing it reminded me of the fight scene in the TMI movie when Clary kicks Valentine into the portal
You seem so delighted during this whole video, it's great. Also, I thought maybe Clary could make a rune to limit their parabatai power--problem solved!
I know you weren't thrilled with Julian but he was my favorite character! Everything about him made me so happy, and I think he's really relatable because he's in love with his family and will do anything to protect them. How he ended up running the institute and taking over for Arthur just to ensure everyone stays together. Throughout the whole book, Jules had me dying and just seeing this different style of character made me really happy. I love Emma but she reminds me of Jace a lot so I felt that I already knew her. Being able to delve deeper into Julian's character every page just added so much to the story as a whole. I was kind of shocked with the whole Nightshade thing but I think that his crimes were so little they cannot punish him for much, so I have a feeling he will be back.
'Always doesn't feel special. Okay? Okay". I. Died. Then cried.
oh man, i just finished this book and i have so many things in my mind which you basically mostly address. I just hope that despite Mark and Emma being together it doesnt affect Julian and Mark's relationship too much, i love those too. Also I love Julian very much and he has had it so hard since he was a child having to take the role as parent and love his brothers and sisters twice as much as anyone, run the institute, and basically take care of his mad uncle as well, i just want him to be alright. I feel like part of Ty wanting Mark to take over Julian's duties and take care of them is because he loves Julian (despite not showing it sometimes) and sees how exhausted he is and how much he needs help, needs his older brother ;_; like they all need Mark so much but specially Julian.I really loved seeing whenever all the Blackthorns bonded in scenes. Im also excited to see how this love square thing goes down the next book lol i do ship Christina and Mark and i loved the scenes whenever Mark was jealous of Perfect Diego. Im also very excited that we are going to get to know Christopher Herondale. God when Jem and Tessa were with Emma and Kit in the car on the way to the institute i just had all these feels, like omg this is the Carstairs and Herondales here together old and new generations helping each other, creys ;_;. Also we need Helen Blackthorn! The Blackthorns need their sister! and omg the Church and Jem feels! Also i need Jessa to babies!! lawd
Will you review Shadowhunters Ep9?!? I love seeing your reviews every week!
+KaiTheKookyKat Hello uploading right now =)
Yay!!
+polandbananasBOOKS the cover is crazly beautiful
I have finally found someone on RUclips that is the same reading this book with emotions and freaking out! Glad I'm no longer alone!
Christine I agree so much with your Cristina / Mark ship like same!!!
I know I’m SO late to the series, but I just wanna say that this first book was a work of art. I loved every second of it.
And I also just wanna say that the Emma and Julian situation at the end gave me MASSIVE Will and Tessa vibes. I was like “OH NO, AGAIN? REALLY?! ITS WILL AND TESSA ALL OVER AGAIN! WHY” My mind was making all sorts of parallels. And Mark and Julian Blackthorn are baby and I love them.
Lady Midnight is probably my favourite first book in a series and third favourite Shadowhunter book.
Also scholomance is pronounced like scholar. And Jaime is pronounced High-may.
Do you ship Kitty? (Kit/Ty)
I'm pretty sure Jaime is pronounced Hay-meh. In Spanish thats how it's pronounced at least.
+Karkat Vantas WHO THE HELL DOESN'T?
Nghi Dinh Good point.
Michelle San Reis Interesting. The only time I've heard the name before is in stuff with Blue Beetle and they always call him High-may. Maybe it's the anglicised version?
Karkat Vantas I really don't know, it's probably because if you see the name and read it in English it looks like that's what it would sound like, but I'm pretty sure it's High-meh. I mean, I have Spanish relatives and I can't imagine them pronouncing the name as High-may.
I just finished this a minute ago and I'm so glad you already posted this book talk bc I can't handle myself
