I just wanted him to kind-of fall to the side-lines and let Tessa and Will be. And I just always felt like he was there and... ugh. I'm a hardcore Will fan, as you've probably guessed, and I really didn't mean to dislike Jem, but when he got in the way...
And I was SO annoyed about her ending up with Jem!! The ending of this book REALLY aggravated and upset me. I felt like it almost wasn't fair to Will that she got Jem too. I tried to feel happy for them, but I couldn't be. Why would she want anybody else when she has Will?
I'm SO glad someone has the same opinions as me! I hadn't found anyone else who had up until this point!!



side note: I love your name! Although Idk where Warner, Stewart, Holland come from. Should I be reading those books?! Pls recommend away.

Well I wasn't really annoyed with Jem, I was just irritated with their relationship. I mean, Will and Tessa should have ended up together in ..."
yes they were so adorable and right for each other. the things will said to tessa, esp what he wrote in the inscription in the copy of tale of two cities he gave her...omg i cant even describe how badly i wish someone would say something like that to me. i said this in another chat and i will say it again. i honestly respect anyones right to be a hardcore jem fan but to us hardcore will fans, jem was just in the way. and anything that was in the way of the beautiful love will and tessa shared needed to be eliminated. whether it was a puppy. a lion. or jem.

Well I wasn't really annoyed with Jem, I was just irritated with their relations..."
completely agree! I wanted jem to be happy. but not with tessa. and im sorry cassandra clare i just dont buy that she could love both of them the same. also, i feel like her love for will was true and from the beginning and she only started loving jem AFTER she thought she couldnt have will. like I swear she only said she would marry him because she felt bad for him putting his heart on the line like that and he was dying. and of course she grew to love him, why wouldnt she? he was sweet and kind and charming in his own way. But what she felt for will, that was true love. I always felt like when she described her will for love it was electric. and when she described her love for jem it was kinda like, well hes a good second choice. so of course i wanted her with will and will ONLY!


I read both. But Im not really sure what you are getting at. Could you please explain?




I'm totally Team Jem from the start. And I don't even like good guys. I'm always Team Villains or Team Bad boys. but there's something about Jem i just can't help but love him. I've never read a character like him. He's just unique and perfect.


As for me, Jem didn't annoy me much at all. It was weird because between him and Will, I was crushing on Jem (like if he was real, I'd just marry him haha) but as for the love story, I was all for Will and Tessa.

On the other hand, Tesse has his life and love and children with Will. One part of the story is with Will and the othe one will be with Jem. Both of them deserve it so much. Remember Tessa is inmortal same as Magnus, Alec same as Will and Jem has to die at some point and both of them Magnus and Tessa has to live.
Jem did something so strong and hard to be beside Tessa and Will becoming a Silent Brother.He was there when Will die same as Tessa. Think about all the hard times he has gone through. And as he said Will, Tessa and the children was the only thing made him keep his humanity.
Pd: Sorry I've made some mistake with my english.

As for who Tessa should have end up with or the whole Jessa and Wessa thing. I always thought this story was about the three of them and how much they loved each other. This was supposed to be a love triangle and it was an amazing love triangle. It made me fall in love with love triangles and showed me what they were about and how they were supposed to be done.


toward the TMI series after I devoured the Infernal devices. Let's be real....Cassandra Clare has a true gift.....





Most of CC's readers are young YA readers so a lot of them will feel the same because they love the cliche ~brooding asshole~ love interest. Never mind that the Point of this love triangle was that she loved both EQUALLY..... like, come on kids use yo brains.

This is how I felt about Will I do not know why but I'm always like that when I read a book with 2 love interests. Anyways the characters were well written but Jem will always be in my heart <3

I loved how they handled the whole love triangle. Tessa ended up with exactly who she was supposed to be with at the proper times. She was with Will when he needed her. She loved him and made him a very happy husband. Then when the time was right she was able to be with Jem when they needed each other the most. I love Jem and have no issues with him. The best part is that Will and Jem loved each other. Will loved Jem so much that he let others think badly of him just to save his friends life no matter what it was always to save Jem.
