urmm... i know this might be a bit late but urm...."
ya... i agree... when my friends and I found out that the date was pushed back we were all very upset, i could tell you what we did but I'm not going to.
*whispers* Will's still better.
anywho, because i,m not getting to read CoFA yet, can someone tell me a bit about it? like what the problem is THIS time, or really what the hell is going on in this book.
Tessa will hopefully end up with Will, it happens often, good girl/bad boy, except in Twilight, but who likes Twilight?
Yeah thats the point the good girl bad boy story it old.
i have my argument! Tessa should be with Will!
reasons:
1- Jem is going to DIE!!
2- Will IS hot
3- Tess would be heart broken when Jem dies
4- for Jem lovers, ummm hello Jem wouldn't be free game!
my friend thinks that it will be like the hunger games... when the guy whose name starts with 'F' (ends up with Ann?) when he dies shortly after he gets the girl, but instead of the fast heroic death it will be a slow death that will have you crying all night and thing "just die already! get it over with!"
Or!! They find the cure for Jem! But CC said that in the end, Tessa doesn't get to make re choice. O_o I wonder what she means by that... I really can't wait for December!!
still sticking with my facts.
Lol. I mean they are true, but Jem is also hot! And he seems to be not a douche at this point! Realistically, who would go back to a guy that unjokingly, called you a type of whore/prostitute? Don't get me wrong, I love Will too, but don't you think that would kind of be beneath Tessa's dignity/pride? She is a very proud person after all. He would have to apologize, which is something that Will almost NEVER does. And even so, Tessa wouldn't forgive him that easily.
I literally have no idea what to expect, except that I know the book will be EPIC! Even though I love Will and Jem EQUALLY! And want both of them to end up with Tessa (Not possible). I'm excited for the love that will grow between Tessa and Will. Oh, and I cannot explain how excited I am to know Will's secret...

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *keeps screaming* (brother tells me to shut the F up already so he could sleep) can't wait to tell my friend! the cover is FINALY up, YESSSSS!!!! *dancing* dad says to go to bed.
I think she might choose neither since in the Mortal Instruments Jace is a Herondale and if Will married Tessa how were they supposed to have kids since she's infertile? Plus, we found no one who was Carstairs so he probably died...Sad :[
Might be Wills extended family. Plus , I doubt shes actually a warlock.
but she was still alive in the mortal instruments..
Yeah, I know. She could be anything. I just think a warlock is too..predictable.

Prologue: The Outcast Dead
Will visits the Cross Bones Graveyard in London.
Chapter One: The Council Chamber
Pretty literal — the Council meets to discuss whether Charlotte is fit to run the Institute; we see a bit more of the Lightwoods, not to mention the Waylands and some other familiar families.
Chapter Two: Reparations
“Mr. Bane has been awaiting your arrival, sir,” said the footman, and stepped aside to let Will enter.
Chapter Three: Unjustifiable Death
The term, under the Accords, for a Shadowhunter killing a Downworlder without provocation.
“This was the first time she had been alone with Will in weeks.”
Chapter Four: A Journey
Tessa, Will and Jem leave the Institute and in fact, London entirely.
“Gabriel Lightwood strode across the room to meet them. He really was quite tall, Tessa thought, craning her neck to look up at him. As a tall girl herself, she didn’t often find herself bending her head back to look up at men.”
Chapter Five: Shades of the Past
This one is a pun that will probably only make sense upon actual reading. Althpugh one of the themes of the book is how the past affects the present.
Chapter Six: In Silence Sealed
Again the theme is hidden secrets. The title comes from a Charlotte Bronte poem. “In secret kept, in silence sealed.” Tessa begins to uncover the secrets of her own origins.
Chapter Seven: I had to redact the title of this chapter. It’s a spoiler.
“When Will truly wants something,” said Jem, quietly, “when he feels something — he can break your heart.”
Chapter Eight: The Purposes of Wrath
The title here comes from Thomas de Quncey’s (yes de Quincey!) Confessions of an English Opium-Eater. The paragraph is about addiction, and both the pleasures and the pains of opium, and the chapter is not dissimilar. Also, we meet Ragnor Fell.
Chapter Nine: Fierce Midnight
This chapter ends the night begun in the previous chapter. And has some pretty hot kissing. Titled after a Swinburne poem.
Chapter Ten: The Virtue of Angels
The virtue of angels is that they cannot deteriorate; their flaw is that they cannot improve. Man’s flaw is that he can deteriorate; and his virtue is that he can improve. —The Talmud
Someone rather unexpected hits Gabriel — who, really, was asking for it.
Chapter Eleven: Wild Unrest
This chapter title comes from the poem “City of Dreadful Night” by James Thompson. It’s really about taking on the suffering of someone you love. Will wanders about London at night. “He had reached Fleet Street. Temple Bar was visible through the mist in the distance” — Temple Bar is the structure Jem is standing in front of, on the cover of the book.
Chapter Twelve: The Ball
This is somewhat self-explanatory. There is a masquerade ball. And a balcony. And Magnus.
Chapter Thirteen: The Mortal Sword
We finally see the Mortal Sword put to its actual use: extracting the truth from reluctant Shadowhunters. And it is not pretty.
Chapter Fourteen: The Silent City
“Ah,” said a voice from the doorway, “having your annual ‘everyone thinks Will is a lunatic’ meeting, are you?”
Chapter Fifteen: Thousands More
From a poem by Charlotte Mew: There are thousands more; you do not miss a rose.
“Will has always been the brighter burning star, the one to catch attention — but Jem is a steady flame, unwavering and honest. He could make you happy.”
Chapter Sixteen: Mortal Rage
In which there are automatons and vengeance and explosions. The title comes from Shakespeare: “And brass eternal slave to mortal rage.”
Chapter Seventeen: In Dreams
There is the famous “in dreams begin responsibilities” but this title is actually from a poem by Matthew Arnold. The chapter from which this deleted scene was taken.
Chapter Eighteen: Until I Die
This chapter title has really freaked people out. So I will be nice and say that it is from a poem by Christopher Brennan (no relation to Sarah Rees):
Then seek not, sweet, the “If” and “Why”
I love you now until I die.
Chapter Nineteen: If Treason Doth Prosper
Betrayals and misunderstandings come thick and fast. And Magnus may have a new boyfriend. The title is from a poem attributed to Sir John Harrington:
“Treason doth never prosper: what’s the reason?
Why if it prosper, none dare call it treason.”
Chapter Twenty: The Last Dream
This is the chapter that made me cry! I rarely cry so I felt good about that. The chapter title comes from A Tale of Two Cities.
Chapter Twenty-One: Coals of Fire
I guess if you’re paying a lot of attention you’ll recognize this as part of something Jace quotes in City of Fallen Angels. Endings, beginnings, new characters, and, I promise, not too bad of a cliffhanger.
Oh gosh... These have me concerned about Jem :(
''The last dream'' and it makes her cry! Its making me sad because its going to be something bad!!
I know!! If something happens to Jem, I will be sent into a spiraling bout of depression :'(
Me too! Poor Jem! He doesn't deserve it hes too nice!!
Mod
This is probably a really dumb question, sorry (it's been a while since I read the books!) - how do we know Tessa's still alive in TMI? Where does she appear?
It's in the very back. Like the epilogue at the party. They don't mention her by name but they say girl with Victorian era clothing, grey eyes, and brown hair. Personally, I think she time travels.
@Heather me too. With Magnus
*sniffs* December is just too far awayyyy
I know it really is. I think someone is supposed to get married in CP, probably Jessamine. what if it's to Gideon or Gabriel? that would be pretty interesting. or if Gideon gets with Sophie.
Mod
highly doubt it. Jessie doesn't like shadowhunters, she probably wouldn't marry one.
Oh yeah that's true, but it'd make for an interesting plot twist
Yasmeen wrote: "but she was still alive in the mortal instruments.."Wait, what book is she still alive in? I dont remember that part :(
Mod
oooooohh, intense!hahaha, never read anything quite like that, and it is extremely different than TMI...
sounds really, really good:)
Oh gooood. Will is SO predictable of course he'd have some kind of wall the ugly jerk.Jem <3
Can't wait~(:
I do believe that it stated that Will was handsome...but yes, cannot wait!:)
Women think Hugh Hefner is handsome too. (: Grrrrr why do looooong
No, they think his money is attractive...What 20 year old woman in her right mind would want to marry an 80 year old?
True. I don't think I'd do it even for the money. Ick!
