    Jem vs. Simon
    
  
  
      Good one! And hard one! I LOVE THEM BOTH! But I must say Jem is my all time favorite out of everyone!
    
      I'm not crazy about either, but I hated Simon until CoFA, once he was done pining over Clary lol. I liked him much more in CoFA. LOVE him and Izzy together. I guess if I'd have to choose I'd say Simon. (The Jace/Kyle/Simon moments were such win in CoFA)
    
      Jem. I love his character so much more than Simon's. He's got more... wait for it... depth. (Shut up, I know that sounds corny! =P) I never really liked Simon but I do love Jem. :)
    
      I like Simon well enough; but am MUCH more interested in Jem. I think because even though Simon liked Clary and Jem most obviously loves Tessa- Clary never loved Simon BACK. Not really. It was never a proper love-triangle because of that; and Tessa is absolutely torn. Clary only ever dated Simon because she thought that Jace was her brother, which is totally gross.

      Simon is awesome. I like him a lot better than Jem. Though i didn't like him up until CoFA. Jem just doesn't seem to have a personality besides...polite.
    
      I kind of feel like the two are incomparable (is that a word?), or at least for me. This is because Simon and Jem's traits don't really have anything in common. Simon's all cuteness and geek, while Jem is all beauty and intelligence. If I had to choose one... I can't. Ha, I actually just can't. I love them both too much. <3 Love triangle-wise, Jem's part is better than Simon's.

      ~ Simon and Jem has different personality and obviously, lifestyle. But, I can't decide. I pick BOTH as well! :)
    
      I like Simon better... Jems so perfect, he makes it hard to say..... Never the less Simon is my fav!
    
      Jem. Jem all the way. I just feel so much for him; plus, I think his character is much more developed and beautifully portrayed. This may also have to do with the fact that I am Chinese.
    
      simon is my second choice, actually third no sorry fourth.
first- will
second- jace
third- jem
fourth- simon

      Simon. Tho I don't like either much, I'm starting to like Simon a little better. (I'm halfway, or so, through CoLS)
    
      I absolutely love JEM/JAMES CARSTARS/ KE JIAN MING!!!I love Will, Jace and Jem very much!
I dont exactly have an order for who I like more, so I'll just say that I love shadowhunter boys [ especially Herondales and Carstairs]

lol I like them exactly in the same order as you :)
      yes, i do love them both...... simon is the funniest of all, and Jem is the sweetest thing..... LOve theeemmmm
    
      I like Simon. he is funny and loyal but i would pick Jem. Simon is a good friend anyone would love to have. but Jem is Mr. nice guy and mr dreamy combined together.
    
      Tough question, I like them both. I think Simon is one of my favourite characters in TMI (along with Izzy and Alec), but I definitely like Jem more. He's just so sweet and kind and sensitive, and funny too.
It's gotta be Jem, hands down. :P
      I HATE JEM SO MUCH HE BROKE MY HEART. HE PROPSED TO TESSA NOW WILL CANT BE WITH TESSAbesides, Simon's got sexy vampire mojo
      Um... I'm actually Team Jem... because if Will isn't here, Jem's the second best.But that doesn't mean I don't like Simon... I would just prefer Jem in a romantic relationship.

























So who's better out of the two?
