Clockwork Prince
i know it says September on GR & in her works, i'm confused myself =S but there's a chance that those sources aren't updated. however if you click on the countdown on her website the one that was put up just yesterday, it says Clockwork Prince- December 6th, 2011.

oh i see, i just assumed like CA it would come out as hardcover first. why would they publish the paperback first? even CA doesn't have a paperback edition yet!

About a month ago, GR said Dec. 6, but Cassie's website still said September... and now I think GR says September again...
Also, Canada gets books in hardcover first... I know other places have paperbacks first- but I don't think Canada plans on having it like that (or the USA)...
I really hope it's September- that's a hard enough wait as it is! =)
kay that would explain the confusion then, I live in Toronto & yes I really hope it's September too

Wait what? What do you mean CA isn't in paperback? I bought mine in paperback the day it came out.
never mind that was a misunderstanding if you read Kayla's comment, she explained how in Canada we get hardcovers first.
but sadly when you calculate what day the remaining 242 days is gonna end up at, it's in December. so either Cassie's gonna change the countdown eventually or it's actually December

On goodreads, it now says that the audio cd comes out in December...
I'm thinking that could be the reason for the confusion... guess we'll have to wait and see=)


my heart just broke, but at the same time im kinda happy because i never want the series to reach its inevitable end, and the change in release just postpones the series end :P --> im weird that way

she says there's a way for Alec to live forever so he can be w/ Magnus that doesn't involve him turning into a vamp
i'm thinking she is referring Tessa's imortality and *perhaps* her oh-so-secret-power
if someone does becomes immortal, i reckon it isn't will cuz CC said in an interview that Tessa felt that seeing Jace was like seeing a ghost, so Will must die
Maybe it has to do with the whole business of Jem's cure *keeping fingers crossed*

i'm thinki..."
Good theory!
that is a good theory
reminds me how pissed off i am that we didn't get any clue in CoFA on what Tessa was doing at the end of CoG!! =(

"Still reeling from her terrifying confrontation with the Magister and her brother’s betrayal, Tessa Gray is drawn ever deeper into the Shadowhunter’s dark underworld of demons and danger. In a desperate attempt to help her friends, Tessa tries to uncover the truth about the Magister and learns that blames the Shadowhunters for the murder of his parents nearly a half century ago. But who were his parents, and why did the Shadowhunters kill them? Determined to unravel the secrets of his past, Tessa, Will and Jem journey to mist-shrouded Yorkshire, only to encounter corrupt Shadowhunters more intent on burying the past than finding the Magister – a past that holds the key not only to the enemy's motivations and weakness, but to the secret of what Tessa really is and what she was born to do. Meanwhile, Tessa’s feelings for Jem and Will are growing more complicated, and soon she is forced to acknowledge that any choice she makes will either save the Shadowhunters of London – or end them for ever."

Right, MARINA, rose said : Tessa’s feelings for Jem and Will are growing more complicated, and soon she is forced to acknowledge that any choice she makes will either save the Shadowhunters of London – or end them for ever."
and cassie said that Tessa doesn't have a choice, as in, she's not the one who gets to pick which boy she'll be with, unlike clary who picked Jace over simon. do you get it now? because no matter who Tessa picks, something bad will still happen... if you still dont understand, say and ill try my best explaination :) <3

that prologue almost made me cry (and ive never cried in both TMI&ID so far..)

although i'm not one to cry, i cried on CoA too haha
+ i know marina, it made me feel a bit tearful too
lol i know i cry for books and movies a lot :D
@Marina you know what makes that prologue even worse? that we don't even know if he's talking about Tessa!! it could be Ceciley! =O I really wanna know who this Ceciley girl is

but i really hope he's talking about Tessa...and i kinda think it is her that he needs the anti-love potion for; because Tessa is recent, Cecily is old..and he wasnt looking for a love potion in the past (as far as we know)
i just really hope it's Tessa...but who knows, i may end up loving Cecily wen i find out who she is :P
after writing that comment I went to read comments from Cassie's googlegroup and this is what she had written in response to the prologue:
"Nothing in that excerpt (which shouldn't be online at all, but oh well)
says Will's in love with Tessa. Just in love with someone he doesn't want to
be in love with. :)"
"Nothing in that excerpt (which shouldn't be online at all, but oh well)
says Will's in love with Tessa. Just in love with someone he doesn't want to
be in love with. :)"


I just saw this!! so I'm guessing we're gonna see Tessa in CoLS
"Will Tessa and Clary meet? Cassie said she couldn't answer that."
"Will Tessa and Clary meet? Cassie said she couldn't answer that."

hahahaha thats good then i guess, depending on how you look at it xx
