Yes! I don't want Jem to die so he needs to end up with Cecily! Will and Tessa NEED to be together!

I wonder if Silence is someone asks the other a question and all there is is Silence as an answer.
 This is something that i HAVE to read!!! The Will/Jem/Tessa love triangle has been so widely talked about, that i feel depleted being 'out of it'. This is a trilogy on my to-read list for sure.

Agreed :D
Though...technically...it isn't a love triangle. You know - since fangirls all over the world insist *stares pointedly at Anna* that Will is their one true love (even though all obvious and available evidence suggests otherwise!) so yeah - WAY bigger than a love triangle!

Now if something were to happen to our dear Tess.. well we'll just see who can comfort William the best
 *Laughs* i am loving all these gifs! It is definately a series that i WILL check-out. (Plus, i have to add how beautiful the cover is of book 3).

     What do you mean 'dead'?? Is it WILL??
      What do you mean 'dead'?? Is it WILL??  
With all due respect, Ms. Clare, i will shoot you if you kill Will in Clockwork Princess.
 
But i'm sure it's not Will, right? :)))

Hmm...could be Tessa, seeing that Cassie's next series includes a 'Carstairs' (descendant of Jem?) and we already know that the Herondale line continues...

If she chucks a J.K Rowling "Kill off the parents and leave the kid orphaned" (e.g. Remus&Tonks, James&Lily) to Henry and Charlotte...I will throw something.

Hopefully she was just talking about Mortmain or some other equally irritating character

Absolutely not!!!! If she kills them off I honestly don't know what I will do with myself!
 I suppose it's possible that Will dies since he has sisters who can continue the Herondale line if he dies... But I doubt Cassandra Clare would kill Will off, too many people would be so upset they might not buy Lady Midnight which of course is not what an author wants to have happen

      Another teaser to torture you with:
"Rage flared up in Tessa and she considered belting Woolsey with the poker whether he came near her or not. He had moved awfully quickly while fighting Will, though, and she didn’t fancy her chances. “You don’t know James Carstairs. Don’t speak about him.”
“Love him, do you?” Woolsey managed to make it sound unpleasant. “But you love Will, too.”
Tessa froze. She had known that Magnus knew of Will’s affection for her, but the idea that what she felt for him in return was written across her face was too terrifying to contemplate."
