NOTHING WILL EVER COMPARE TO HERONGRAYSTAIRS FOR ME
Snow Reads same but what about the blackthorns, the Fairchild’s and the lightwoods
sapna reji HeronGrayStairsWoodFairThorns
YES
I hate to ruin the perfect 666 like count...but I HAD to because I wholeheartedly agree
The epilogue for Clockwork Princess absolutely DESTROYED ME.
Melissa Bryson YES
I still cry when I think about it. My abridged version-SPOILERS!!! It was customary at the death of a shadowhunter for the friends and family to gather around the bedside and tell stories. Some would find it odd, the sight of an old man being cradled by a woman young enough to be his granddaughter, but for those present, it was just Will and Tessa. They all told stories, of the green mountains and deep blue lakes of Wales, of demon pox and songs passed down. Then when everyone else had left, Will and Tessa lay together in the dark and told stories only they knew. Of the girl who hit a boy on the head with a pitcher, and how he fell in love with her in that moment, of holy water and blood. Afterward, Jem took out his violin and began to play. He played two boys training together and then playing cards. Two young men running through the streets of London, then stopping up against a building to catch their breath and laugh. The memories came on and on. Then, with his hand in Jem's and his head on Tessa's shoulder, his eyes slid closed and he died. After that she fled. She had endured the death of her husband. She could not survive the death of her children. There were times when Tessa was horrified to realize she had forgotten the exact blue of Will's eyes. She found Magnus in New York and stayed with him. Some nights she would wake up screaming for Will and Magnus would come to her side. "The first one's always the hardest", he would tell her. This is my own little imagination-every Christmas since his passing, Tessa thinks back to Sophie's Ascension ceremony and remembers how the snow began to fall and make patterns on the floor. Will leans over and says in her ear, "Merry Christmas, Tessa."
Alyssa Goss I AM BALLING!!!!!!!!!😖😩😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I cried so hard!
I am so sad but so exited for the LAST HOURS!!!!!!!
“Then I met your grandfather.” 😂❤️
*The Mortal Instruments has left the chat...*
Will is the superior Herondale and that's a fact. PERIODT.
Amen
let’s be honest Will is the superior shadowhunter
PERIOD
Obviously but I still love Kit
Will is the superior everything.
Christine: if I'm about to spoil you I'll let you know by putting the book cover for the one that I'll be spoiling
Also Chistine: J A C E H E R O N D A L E
And Kit oh wow ok
LMAO I didn't realize either😂😂😂😂
So true
Also Christine: Kit Herondale
The Infernal Devices is a MASTERPIECE.
The lesson of this video is: Can anything compare to Clockwork Princess................NO IT CAN'T!!!!!!😂 I totally agree!!!!
That applies to any book or character in the series basically. Why doesn't Charlotte get more recognition?
NO IT CAN'T!!!
I love the Dark Artifices a bit more that Infernal Devices but Will was the best Herondale I loved Jace but Will, Jem and Tessa best Trio and love triangle by far. I wonder if Christine’s opinion will change after reading Queen of Air and Darkness along with the epilogues and extra story at the end. But I just started reading so I can’t spoil you I’m on page 280~ something.
I-- oh no. I have a type. And it's characters that are wounded and book.
Omg I’m so excited to watch this when I’m out of woek
Was woek fun?
Christine expressed all my feelings towards The Infernal Devices which is my favorite trilogy of all time
This video is giving me serious 2012-2015 feels and I love it so much
MOOD
When she dropped Sebastian it hurt a bit ngl🥵
“Sebastian, no! Stay on the floor!”
😂💀
The sad thing was that he never had control and he showed that right before he died
Nothing beats Christine's excitement over these books. Nothing.
Nothing can compare to The Infernal Devices, end of story. Except maybe the Last Hours. Oh boy, I'm gonna die when Chain of Gold comes out.
Me too I love will and will married to Tessa would be so epic
I feel like it's going to be epic as well because don't forget that Jem still loved Tessa. So we'll have a book where Tessa and Will are getting married and live their life and Jem 😢
When I clicked on this video I said “infernal devices better win” and what do you know?
The infernal devices is my all time favorite
I know you're ma brother.
I know you're my sister.
But... Do we really care?
Only in the TMI fandom, baby. 😂😂👌👌
Sunshine 😂💀💀 yea..
i literally got up from bed, put on my glasses, clicked the video, and watched the ad.
Ouday Yehya You can !!!!
honestly i feel like there are so many villains in the dark artifices and i don’t know who’s the main threat lol
i knew the infernal devices would win lol i love that trilogy so much!!!
I agree, like I love TDA but it's less concise than TID, which is my favourite. It's harder to keep track of everything that's happened in TDA because the books are sprawling and there are so many plotlines to follow.
Right?? In the end the biggest threat ended up being the cohort? And like, they weren't even in the first book.
I still loved it though
*Tessa is the best girl*
CHANGE MY MIND
Monsour Anda can’t change facts
Best villain for me is Sebastian. He's so bad but handsome as hell 😍😍
"wow... I really love your grandpa"
TMI vs. TID vs. TDA
Aka
*the girl who fell in love with her brother* vs. *the parabatai who fell in love with the same girl* vs. *the parabatai who fell in love with each other*
I know there is so much more to those series than that, I love The Shadowhunter Chronicles.
i feel bad for TMI 😂 i still love that series so freaking much and i kinda love clary even though she can be pretty maddening, maybe it’s because i’m a gryffindor 🤷🏼♀️
Tytti Leinonen I’m kinda surprised she didn’t choose Sebastian as the best villain 😂 yes yes Sebastian was a freaking awful character and he deserved absolutely ZERO redemption for his actions because he’s just that evil, but imo that is exactly what made him the best villain out of all of CCs series 😶😂😂
Madison Castleman yes exactly! i love to hate sebastian
I really appreciated the Friends reference in 'London Baby' - But totally agree, Infernal Devices all the way!
meanwhile i have a sociology exam on monday.
200 pages to study. 2 days to do so.
Can i do it? stay tuned
Ouday Yehya Good luck!
good luck
6 pages an hour you can do this
Ouday Yehya did you pass?
I wonder if QoAaD epilogue will be more sad than the Clockwork Princess epilogue. I'm almost sure it will and I'm not even prepared for this.
Leandro Azevedo I wont spoil anything but in my humblest opinion- it doesn’t even compare in the slightest. It’s not meant to be sad, it ends on a cliffhanger but it’s honestly not all that. Clockwork princess epilogue is a billion times better and you probably won’t even shed a tear at QOAAD one (during the book yes, but the epilogue no)
@@megansimpson4825 no spoilers, but I am only on chapter 4 and now it is starting to get very interesting. The three chapters made me cry a lot. They were just pure beautiful and amazing. I know I will probably cry more 😂😂😂
omg the cliffhanger sucks , i dont want anything bad to happen to my babies jace and clary
I LOVED LOVED LOVED THIS VIDEO I AM SO EXCITED FOR QUEEN OF AIR AND DARKNESS!!! CHRISTINE YOU HAVE TO READ GHOSTS OF THE SHADOW MARKET, LIKE YOU HAVE TO, I BELIEVE ITS AS MANDOTORY AS TALES OF THE SHADOWHUNTER ACADEMY WERE FOR LADY MIDNIGHT YOU MUST READ THEM THEY ARE AMAZING
I am!! I'm on the fourth story!!!
@@polandbananasBOOKS YASSSS YOU GO GIRL!!
@@polandbananasBOOKS don't stop until you get to the last one. It has huge kit plotlines that will probably play a big part on qoaad
SOOO good and ghosts is SO important for Queen
I think I disagree only with the Clockwork Army, because to me, the Dark Army was the best. Dark Shadowhunters? Talk about a real threat.
Actually, TID isn't my favorite series, but I can't argue with these results...
Omg I just remembered how the epilogue of Clockwork Princess ends, I’m going to go cry underneath a blanket for an hour.
What we gathered from this: Nothing can ever compare to the infernal devices
You screaming "cAN ANYTHING compare to the Clockwork--" is everything haha
Dude you spoiled Kits lineage like two seconds after you said you would put a book up for spoilers...
😂
THE EPILOGUE OF CLOCKWORK PRINCESS IS SO BEAUTIFUL IT ONE OF THE BEST THING IVE EVER READ
TID is the superior series I only speak facts
me: sees shadowhunters in the title
me: JUMPS UP TO WATCH
I agree so hard!! TID is everything but I adore TDA, Julian!! I’d be lying if I said I didn’t laugh at least 20 times at how accurately you expressed every thought I’ve ever had as part of the Shadowhunters fandom lol
Why you don't have any category for my Jem?? 😭😭
For me my favorite shadowhunter series in order are:
TDA
TDI
TMI
But who knows what will happen after Queen of Air and Darkness comes out I have a good feeling about it.
I've literally been thinking about cassandra clare books all day, so seeing that you uploaded this made me so happy!! such a fun tag. ❤️😊
I love how you’re so enthusiastic every time you make a video
I freaking love your response to the love triangle question. I get upset at the thought that any other could beat Jem - Will - Tessa. Such an amazing deep connection between all three of them... I hope more people read TID so they can have their idea of a love triangle shattered!
watching you talk about the shadow hunter books brings me so much joy!
I miss your shadowhunter videos they're always so much fun too watch!
Clockwork Princess still wrecks me every time I think about it and I love it!
I loved watching this so much! I absolutely love it when a new Cassie Clare book comes out because then you come up with Shadowhunter content and tHATS WHAT I LIVE FOR!
I LOVE LOVE this tag!!
And yeah, the epilogue of Clockwork Princess *BROKE MY HEART*
I was literally like I wish Christine would upload a shadow hunter video, and here it is!! This made my day!!
Dude I'm reading Queen of Air and Darkness and I'm DIEING.... thank you Cassandra for killing my heart... Once again...
How have I not found you on CZcams till now! I was screaming you’re personality is so awesome! Plus I totally agree with you on everything you said
I read the infernal devices because of your videos and now its my favorite series!!
god i've been watching you for so long and reading cassie's books for so long that watching a book tag video by you on her books is just nostalgia ten fold it makes me so happy to see this
also uncontestedly, tid is the best cassie series to me. tda hasn't topped it yet. maybe it will with the final book or maybe i need to reread the other two, but right now my heart lies with babies in the victorian london institute!
Your editing is so amazing!! Awesome video as always:)
This took me back to my 12 year old self, debating every single thing about these series, who were my favorites, and I honestly loved it! Great video Christine, and I just want to say your book looks great on your shelf 😉
I love Emma Carstairs because because of her personality and sarcastic-ness. I love Tessa Gray for so many reasons I can’t even say them all. I love Clary Fairchild because she’s the kind of girl who would start a war in a unicorn T-shirt... sooooo
Favorite video of all time! I have watched it well over 20 times and can say every single word with her, I don’t know why I love this video so much but it is absolutely fabulous just like Christine❤️❤️❤️
Sebastian and Valentine are actually my favorite villains 😂
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO CHRISTINE ❤ A BLESS, AS USUAL..It's so motivational to finally make me read "Lord of Shadows"...I really need to catch up on the series XD
I love this!! I love Emma’s vid and I’m so happy u r also doing it!!!💙
There's literally NOBODY who makes me as excited to read as Christine. This makes me wanna read these books all over again, I still havent read Cassandra's last series and I'm DYING, I'M IN PAIN. I'M GONNA GO BUY THEM ASAP TY CHRISTINE 😭💕
Cool tag. :D And a really fun video! I love your enthusiasm. ^^ So far, I've only read the Mortal Instruments, but you've got me quite excited for the other ones too. So Infernal Devices goes on my TBR first... because the advice is to read Lady Midnight after all the others. ;)
Never clicked on a video faster!
Your voice tickles me and I have no idea why I smile everytime I watch a video of yours
I stopped reading Queen of Air and Darkness for this, so you know I love you 💜 (again, thank you Amazon Mexico for somehow screwing up and sending it early, literally best early Christmas gift ever)
I love you so much Christine. 💗💗💗. You've inspired me to read so many books. Love you
Your raimbow bookshelf looks FANTASTIC again YAYYYYYYY!
I love the Los Ángeles institute surrounded by the ocean and desert. Instead of being surrounded by a city like the London or New York Institute. But I do get the feels especially when we went to London during Lord of Shadows feels
This is amazing! It’s like you’re in my head 😭 I don’t think I’ll ever read another book that made me feel the way infernal devices did. I get emotional just reading Will’s name in TDA 😭😭
Girl, u r so right about the books. I freaking love these books!
I come back to this video every few months even tho I've read them all and pretty much memorised this video cos its so fun
Aaahh love the videoo 😍
Started Queen of Air and Darkness and i’m 6 chapters in and its already greatt 👌🏻
Now I feel like reading all of them again!
Mortal instruments will always be my fave
silverforgold I feel so bad that it only got one win 😓😓😂 I mean, like, I do have to agree that Will is the better Herondale IMO but SEBASTIAN IS THE BEST VILLAIN BY FAR AND HIS DARK ARMY IS WAY BETTER THAN THE INFERNAL ARMY! Yeah yeah Sebastian and his dark army were awful and deserved ZERO redemption because they were that evil but that is totally what made them the best villains. Like Fade and Annabel are really good villains too but with the way TDA has finished I almost feel as if Fade and Annabel were never meant to be seen as the huge villains of the story. Yes they were central parts of the bad points of TDA but the way Queen ends makes Fade and Annabel seem pretty much irrelevant. Plus I’m ngl but COHF is the best last book against Princess (not counting Queen because that is definitely even better than COHF) because the whole book is just full of action and there’s honestly not a single boring part of that book whereas with Princess I feel like the second half of the book is where it gets good because the epilogue is so heart breaking and it really does have an amazing ending, but whenever I read it I do usually find myself skipping loads of sections just to get to the part where Will finds Tessa in the cave and reading from there to the end. So I do think that TMI deserves way more appreciation IMO 😂😂
Plus TMI is the very first proper book series I read from when I was 11 and I’m 17 now (I never liked reading much before reading TMI) and it was the series that made me LOVE reading so much- legit not a single day has gone by since then where I’m not reading something- so I feel a certain loyalty towards the TMI books and the characters in them 😂😂
Madison Castleman omg me too. Like TMI solidified my love for reading like I jsut have such a special connection with those characters.
This is my favourite video of yours ever! Screaming about Shadowhunter novels 4 days before QoAaD releases is what I needed in my life :D I was gonna do this tag, but basically I have all the same answers (except Sebastian is awesome how dare you :P ).
your hair looks so beautiful!
Your videos are just SO FUN to watch!!!
This video really brightened my day. Clockwork Princess is honestly the best. Can’t wait for queen of air & darkness, I haven’t received it yet.
they're all so great and I love them so much, but TMI will always hold a special place in my heart.
Ah you posted haha yay I was just rewatching your 100 and book writing videos! I need to read The Dark Artifices! I said I would reread TID and TMI to refresh my memories but ended up only reading TID again 😂. Fingers crossed I can reread TMI and finally achieve me goal of reading TDA
You are so absolutely correct in your scoring!!
OMG I love how you freak out about the books because I really feel with you! Those are all my favorites. I love all books from Cassandra Clare and there is nothing better haha. This is the first video ever I saw from you but thank you for this amazing Video!!!!

Also xtine I would like to thank you for introducing me to TMI so many years ago IM ETERNALLY THANKFUL, 5-6 years later I’m crying :,)
I clicked this video hoping my favorites would win but then remember it’s Christine and she loves TID and was not surprised whatsoever by any of her choices.
YAYAYAY I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR A SHADOWHUNTERS VIDEO 😁
Since the beggining we all new that nothing can or will ever win over TID, I mean, was this really ever a contest?
Love this video sooo much
I haven’t even watched it yet, but I know you’re gonna say the infernal devices series 😂
Perfect books that is why ❤
Omg, I love your videos💕, you are such a lovely person
Purposely left all the Shadowhunter chronicles related videos until the day before QOOAD comes out. I’m so excited
I completely agree with your opinion on Mortmain!
The Last Hours I have a lot of faith in, I think it’s the most easily portrayed in my mind when I read
The Infernal Devices is everything....I started my Shadowhunter journey with that series
WHY DOES YOUR HAIR LOOK SO AMAZING IN THIS VIDEO? GIVE US YOUR HAIR ROUTINE CHRISTINE
I loved the infernal devices ❤
couldn't get myself to get past the first book of the mortal instruments
Same Christine!!! Took the whole week off so I can read Queen of Air and Darkness!! I'm not ready for the series to come to an end 😭
i just love it when you rave about TID everytime bc literally everything u say, I CAN RELATE AND I AGREE 100%.
TID IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST TRILOGY OF ALL TIME!!!
I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE THE CHAIN OF GOLD COVER IN YOUR CHANNEL!!!
1) Tessa
2) this hurts to choose but i think Will
3) obviously Jem Will and Tessa.
4) ok obviously the best villain is Sebastian
5) I think the Dark Army took this one
6) Lady Midnight
7) its between Isabelle or Cristina and I'm not going to choose so its a point for both
8) Los Angeles Institute
9) Clockwork Princess
10) ooo this was kinda hard but I think I THINK it might be City of Lost Souls although Clockwork Prince and Lord of Shadows were pretty much tied with City of Lost Souls.
11) I think forbme its Clockwork Princess bc it's really the only book that gave me some closure.
AND THE WINNER IS.... THE INFERNAL DEVICES! but I have to say i love every single book shes written and each series has a special place in my heart
