I personally think that TID was a looot better. Maybe that's because I love Jem so much (oops) but I think the characters, the setting and the love story in TID are a little bit stronger than in TMI ;)
I think TID is a lot better than TMI, maybe its just because i simply enjoy stories that takes place in the past (especially The Victorian London era) but i also think in TID we learn more about loyalty and love and true friendship and all that chessy stuff and i really enjoy it!❤️❤️❤️❤️
I understand your problem 😂👌🏻 what TMI is for you, is TID for me. I love Jem Carstairs. I love his character, I love his story, i LOVE HIMMM 😭😭 I just cry and while I was cyring he maked me laugh and I was so emotional. He deserves everything good in world, but he doesn't want everything good for him, he wants that for his friends/family. I was a totally mess after Clockwork princess. And Jem isn't my first bookboyfriend, but he still slays my whole life with his words. I think nobody can top him. 😱😭😭😍❤️ Jem Carstairs is my spirit animal
YES, YES, AND EVEN MORE YES! I LOVE JEM CARSTAIRS SO SO MUCH HE JUST MAKES ME SMILE WHENEVER HE TALKS OR PLAYS HIS VIOLIN OR TALKS TO ANY OF THE OTHER SHADOWHUNTERS
I'm a wessa shipper, although I did enjoy Jessa as well and I really appreciate the love triangle. I think I just generally got so much more attached to the characters in TID than TMI cuz I felt they were more developed and better written.
You literally have the same opinion as me about the whole "Climon" thing, it makes me uncomfortable when i read CoA. Also I actually ship Jessa and Wessa. It's the only love triangle where I've equally shipped both sides of it xD
I am teenager, I get easily depressed and TID gave me a lot of pain because I cared so much about Will and everyone in the book . So I have to go with TMI but Will is still my fave.
Will and Tessa. the otp that has shattered me and rocked my world all the same. the couple I was rooting for so much. (And it happened!) yet I wished Will was immortal. he needed Tess for then anything. Jem and Will. My favorite Parabatai to read. their brotherly love will stay with me forever. I'm gonna have to choose Infernal Devices over Mortal Instruments. although I do love Mortal Instruments, I just love Infernal Devices more....
Will, Tessa, and Jem. The only love triangle I will willingly accept. It's true. JESSA for life. Will and Tess had an instant connection but with Tessa and Jem, there's a build up. You see them slowly falling for each other and I love it. I prefer Jace to Will too. Sebastian was an awesome villain- The Magister was not a villain to be honest. I love Cecily and Izzy equally. I love the London institute- because I'm from London. 😂 Clockwork Princess was amazing. It deffo was more intense (and I'm a TMI snob).
When I told my friends that I love Sebastian they almost had a heart attack. I am glad I'm not the only one to love his character and that appreciates him as a villain!
I agree with you, I am just too attached to TMI. Even though I love both, TMI has a special place in my heart because those books were my first experience with the Shadowhunter world.
The Infernal Devices is actually my favourite series of all time so its really refreshing to see this video after watching your previous TMI vs TID tag. Don't get me wrong I also absolutely love TMI but I just feel so much more of an emotional connection to the story and the characters of TID. I just feel like the portrayal of love and loyalty was a lot stronger in TID. This may also be because I love Will just as much as you love Jace. The parabatai bond between Will and Jem made me feel a lot more than the one between Jace and Alec did. Not to say that I didn't enjoy reading about the bond between Jace and Alec because I really did but I just have so much more of an emotional connection to Will and Jem's bond. I really enjoyed this video!
+vicki love glad to hear you love tid so much, i completely understand your reasoning!! i think we're just the opposite with the connection thing hahahha
For me when I was younger, Harry Potter for me was what TMI was/is for you. I refead it over and over again for months, and everytime I tried to read something else, I just wasn't having it. I eventually read something else (I think it was Divergent, and it really kicked off my love for Dystopian). It has been 3-4 years since I was in my Harry Potter phase, and I am much more open minded. Sometimes I do still struggle to really get into something else if I am just not ready for a story to end, but I don't flat out say no anymore lol.
Okay but like Clace is my OTP for life!!!!The Mortal Instruments are the books that made me love reading so i'm so attached to the story. Any cassandra clare's book are good ❤️
Can you imagine when this tag will eventually become the TID vs TLH vs TMI vs TDA vs TWP tag? I'm pretty sure someone will remake it when QoAaD comes out. I also feel like that someone might be you. Personally most of my points are going towards TDA at the moment. I am obsessed with TDA. Favourite main character: Clary, Tessa or Emma? Emma. Favourite Herondale: Jace, Will or Kit? Kit. Kit is my precious child, and I love him. Favourite love triangle: Siclace, Herongraystairs or Kierarktina? Kierarktina. Rooting for hot fairy threesome. Favourite villain: Sebastian, Mortmain or the Unseelie King? Sebastian. Better army doesn't really apply. I guess there's the faerie army, or the Cohort. Anyway, definitely the Clockwork Army. Best first book: CoB, CA or LM? Lady Midnight. There's like, no contest. Favourite female sidekick: Isabelle, Cecily or Cristina? For me it's a tie between Izzy and Cristina. Best setting: NY, London or LA Institute? Tied between the London Institute and the LA Institute. Favourite last book? At the moment, CoHF, but I think QoAaD will probably beat it. Best epilogue? CoHF, at the moment. TID: 1.5 TMI: 3.5 TDA: 5 Of course, this is basically a beta run.
1. Tessa Gray 2. Will Herondale 3. Will, Tessa, Jem 4. Sebastian Morgernstern 5. Clockwork 6. City Of Bones 7. Cecily Lightwood (This was so hard, but I still love Isabelle!) 8. London Institute 9. Clockwork Princess 10. Clockwork Princess BTW. Will is my bookboyfriend which is crazy since I'm gay, yep. Cecily is my bookgirlfriend!
currently reading lady midnight!!! ddid anyone notice this, both protagonist are connected to the antagonist in some weird way. both antagonost want the protagonist to marry them. both secondary protagonist are Herondales. both protagonist created an army. both protagonist are kidnapped.
Yess!! he was the most interesting character IMO, in TMI! *potential spoiler* Was really annoyed with what Cassandra did with him at the end of CoHF. 😥
i’m definitely more of a TID and TDA person than I am TMI, but I must say that the first 3 books in TMI are all time favorites of mine. they hold such a special place in my heart and it’s really hard for me to put other books above them
I love TMI. It was the first series I read and there is that love I have for it ❤️ TID is just more relatable for me and it just gets me in my feelings 👑
Jace was also my very first book boyfriend and still even though Will is great...Jace is Jace no one can compete with him!! Also as far as villains are concerned, both Valentine and Sebastian were by far the best villains I`ve read about, the Magister never intimidated for some reason. Now I`m very curious to watch the previous TMI vs. TDI video 😁
I love both series equally😭😭 I love Tessa and Clary, Jace and Will, Sebastian, and Izzy and Cecily! TID was written later on, and the writing was better but TMI will always have a place in mah heart🖤
Thank you for redoing this, I stumbled on your original video first and I really felt like you were unfairly dismissing TID so I'm really glad you revised your opinions.
I just finished Clockwork Princess today, and when you announced the last question, inhuman sounds came from my mouth, and I almost had a breakdown, love this tag though
Aaah I need to this! I just did a Shadowhunters tag, but these questions are so cool too! The TID love triangle is also the only love triangle I can get behind haha, I love how it's based on everyone just caring about each other TOO MUCH instead of weird jealousy and competition. Sebastian is definitely one of the best villians ever. I think our answers for the last two questions would be mirrored! I thought City of Heavenly Fire was SO good compared to Clockwork Princess, but the epilogue of Clockwork Princess was everything lol.
When i read a book series with a love triangle i get extremely biased. When i first read wessa i had my heart set on them but i slowly started to fall in love with jem
I disagree with you on basically every question where you answer TMI because I love TID SOOOO much more (TMI is still a great series!) I fell in love with TID, maybe because I read it before I read TMI I dunno. I just feel like TID is a better series :D
Hahaha I can definitely see why you say that! To each their own! All that maters to me is that Cassie Clare gets the recognition she deserves for the worlds she creates :))
I think I have to do this tag ASAP. I totally get the attachment to TMI! I made an infernal devices story time video that explains why I think I need to pit these two together as of recently.
i remember the first time you did this and it was awesome yaaaaas clary still slays i have definitely moved past being so upset over jessa AND I GET IT NOW TOO I LOVE LOVE LOVE SEBASTIAN both sidekicks are perfect how do you choose what do you mean fictional the institute IS THERE OKAY clockwork princess was a very intense ending to that trilogy cohf's epilogue was the best way to end it im so glad your opinions have changed in a great way!!
I think it really depends at which series you read first. I defiantly prefer TMI, and sort of had the same experience where I'd didn't really like TID to begin with. I've made my peace with it now though. I also just loved Tessa and Will so much, at the time like you I thought Jem was just in the way.
As for Will and Tessa ... she thought about him even when hang out with Jem . I really don't know what to say. On the one hand, Will said to her terrible things at the end of the first book and I hate him so much. But I understand that she loves Will no matter what. On the other hand, Jem supported her and showed London and was kind to her. To my mind, while Jem proposed to her they were not ready for this, they knew each other too little and he was more as her friend then a boyfriend. .
TMI is kind of my Harry Potter since Harry Potter came out before I was born and I was 8 when TMI came out, so I grew up with it and Jace was my 1st book boyfriend. It will always have a special place in my heart. Before anyone says anything. Yes I have read Harry Potter and yes it's amazing, I just didn't grow up with it.
I was going to start The Shadowhunter Chronicles with TID but the lady at the shop said to start with TMI. So I'll always have that sentimental tie to TMI more than TID like you said 💙
My story of tmi is like the same as yours. A good friend of mine forced me to watch city of bones, i fell in love with the movie and everything about it and then i found out about the books and read them. To this day it is my favourite series of all time.
i took this because i was so confused on which i like better I ended up liking TID better, but i think that had to do with the fact that I read it first, although i also hoped for a which version of Magnus is better question
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WITH AN OBSESSION OVER Sebastian! I'm not aloneeeeeeeeeeee! But seriously, he's my favorite character of all time in books. Ever.
lol there probably will be a new vs tag when the last hours & the dark artifices are finished haha. I love tmi more than tid but tid is still sooooo good
I wish I had read TID before our TMI readalong but hey better late than never right! But now that I've read all of them, I actually agree with all of your choices, except for the epilogue one! I think I would've chosen CPrincess because I liked how emotional it made me ahaha
I feel like I'm apart of the minority section of the Shadowhunter fandom that prefers The Infernal Devices over The Mortal Instruments. Despite that detail, wonderful video and I love how excited you get over Cassandra Clare books.
I couldn’t stand Tessa bc of how she made out with both of them like hours(?) apart. Who can root for a character basically coming between two best friends?? I’m like you- I read tid right after tmi. And I’ve read tmi 8 times now😳😂 But I remember the only thing I liked about Tessa was her love for books. And that I didn’t understand why people loved Tessa lol. I’m so sorry guys- we all have different feels- please don’t hate me! I’ll try to reread it at some point🤷🏼♀️
Clary and Simon was never a thing aha but I actually am not as into the tdi triangle as others. It was obvious that Tessa loved them both but that she loved Will in that way more and Jem goes and proposes and she says Yes! It really frustrated me but the last book made me feel a lot better about the triangle. I like tmi a lot more than tdi and agree with like 99% of your answers.
omg im wondering if she could do a book shelf tour soon if so then yay but if not any time soon they alright good anyway as long i get to see her videos:]
There's NO jessa nor wessa. ONLY HERONGRAYSTAIRS
YES EXACTLY YES
So damn true
noooo ahh
Truth
facts
WHO NEEDS JACE WHEN YOU HAVE WILL FREAKING HERONDALE
Jillian Takemura HELL YEAH
@@narbadadahal678 yaaa when i read the books, i was like: WILL IS SO SIMILAR TO JACE
I feel like Clockwork Princess had the most beautiful epilogue ever.
It was definitely amazing
And the sadest
Climon was like Clabastian. We shipped it for about two seconds and then realised how wrong it is and never talked about it again.
truth XD
JEM NEEDS INFINITELY MORE LOVE FROM THE FANDOM!!!!!!
the Clockwork Princess epilogue made me want to die
I personally think that TID was a looot better. Maybe that's because I love Jem so much (oops) but I think the characters, the setting and the love story in TID are a little bit stronger than in TMI ;)
Yes I definitely think TID is much better developed! Hahaha yes Jem is really great
sameee
Addie Musrep me too!
I think TID is a lot better than TMI, maybe its just because i simply enjoy stories that takes place in the past (especially The Victorian London era) but i also think in TID we learn more about loyalty and love and true friendship and all that chessy stuff and i really enjoy it!❤️❤️❤️❤️
So happy to hear you love it!!!!! Xx
I agree with Clockwork Princess being the better final book! I loved that epilogue so freaking much!!!
Sososo great!!!!
I actually hate it 😭😭
Irish Reader I CRIED MY EYES OUT love it so much
That epilogue killed me
I understand your problem 😂👌🏻 what TMI is for you, is TID for me. I love Jem Carstairs. I love his character, I love his story, i LOVE HIMMM 😭😭 I just cry and while I was cyring he maked me laugh and I was so emotional. He deserves everything good in world, but he doesn't want everything good for him, he wants that for his friends/family.
I was a totally mess after Clockwork princess. And Jem isn't my first bookboyfriend, but he still slays my whole life with his words. I think nobody can top him. 😱😭😭😍❤️
Jem Carstairs is my spirit animal
Jem Carstairs is bae and always bae!
It definitely took me a while to warm up to Jem but I fully agree with you
YES, YES, AND EVEN MORE YES! I LOVE JEM CARSTAIRS SO SO MUCH HE JUST MAKES ME SMILE WHENEVER HE TALKS OR PLAYS HIS VIOLIN OR TALKS TO ANY OF THE OTHER SHADOWHUNTERS
Seren I am in love with Jem too. He is so kind. How can't people like him? He is perfect. And I love Jem more than Will.
Duru Uyar
Jem >>>> Will :-P
Sorry Will, but Jem takes the cake.
I'm a wessa shipper, although I did enjoy Jessa as well and I really appreciate the love triangle. I think I just generally got so much more attached to the characters in TID than TMI cuz I felt they were more developed and better written.
I agree that TID is better written than TMI.
You literally have the same opinion as me about the whole "Climon" thing, it makes me uncomfortable when i read CoA.
Also I actually ship Jessa and Wessa. It's the only love triangle where I've equally shipped both sides of it xD
#Herongraystairs ;D
"I was young & stupid & there was no Jace Wayland" ahahaha Emmaaaa
+happycomesfirst ahaahhha i'm glad we agree!!
"There was no Jace Wayland and I was upset..." SAME but i ended up loving TID maybe even more than TMI but TMI holds a special place in my heart
i love sebastian too he's so EVIL
MY KING
The end of TID destroyed me and left me weeping for an hour but I loved it.
I can't wait when we going to have all five and have a TID vs. TLH vs. TMI vs. TDA vs. TWP! ONLY TEN MORE YEARS *crys unbearably*
It will be the most epic tag in al of history!
Riley Stephens can you name these book series? I only know like three of them
fgl The Infernal Devices, The Last Hours, The Mortal Instruments, The Dark Artifices and The Wicked Powers, I think.
Will is the best!!! I love him so much!!!
such a babe
+emmmabooks
I am teenager, I get easily depressed and TID gave me a lot of pain because I cared so much about Will and everyone in the book . So I have to go with TMI but Will is still my fave.
Will and Tessa. the otp that has shattered me and rocked my world all the same. the couple I was rooting for so much. (And it happened!) yet I wished Will was immortal. he needed Tess for then anything.
Jem and Will. My favorite Parabatai to read. their brotherly love will stay with me forever.

I agree with you in so many things! I loved TID but TMI has so much sentimental value for me and jace was my first fictional boyfriend too! 😁
Hahaha glad to hear we agree on things!!!!
When I told my friends that I love Sebastian they almost had a heart attack. I am glad I'm not the only one to love his character and that appreciates him as a villain!
+Noor Farhat HE IS BAE
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO LOVES SEBASTIAN
my bae
I love Sebastian too😄
I agree with you, I am just too attached to TMI. Even though I love both, TMI has a special place in my heart because those books were my first experience with the Shadowhunter world.
+Alysa Morley yay! someone else agrees :))

+vicki love glad to hear you love tid so much, i completely understand your reasoning!! i think we're just the opposite with the connection thing hahahha
Yes, totally agree that the Magister is a flat villain
TID is my BAE 😍😍😍 Will Herondale
I love TMI also 😍 Jace
For me when I was younger, Harry Potter for me was what TMI was/is for you. I refead it over and over again for months, and everytime I tried to read something else, I just wasn't having it.

finally someone that agree with me, i love Sebastian as a villan som much
Okay but like Clace is my OTP for life!!!!The Mortal Instruments are the books that made me love reading so i'm so attached to the story. Any cassandra clare's book are good ❤️
I’m 3 years late but I’ve just finished TID and the epilogue of clockwork princess absolutely broke me ......
Can you imagine when this tag will eventually become the TID vs TLH vs TMI vs TDA vs TWP tag? I'm pretty sure someone will remake it when QoAaD comes out.
I also feel like that someone might be you.
Personally most of my points are going towards TDA at the moment. I am obsessed with TDA.
Favourite main character: Clary, Tessa or Emma? Emma.
Favourite Herondale: Jace, Will or Kit? Kit. Kit is my precious child, and I love him.
Favourite love triangle: Siclace, Herongraystairs or Kierarktina? Kierarktina. Rooting for hot fairy threesome.
Favourite villain: Sebastian, Mortmain or the Unseelie King? Sebastian.
Better army doesn't really apply. I guess there's the faerie army, or the Cohort. Anyway, definitely the Clockwork Army.
Best first book: CoB, CA or LM? Lady Midnight. There's like, no contest.
Favourite female sidekick: Isabelle, Cecily or Cristina? For me it's a tie between Izzy and Cristina.
Best setting: NY, London or LA Institute? Tied between the London Institute and the LA Institute.
Favourite last book? At the moment, CoHF, but I think QoAaD will probably beat it.
Best epilogue? CoHF, at the moment.
TID: 1.5
TMI: 3.5
TDA: 5
Of course, this is basically a beta run.
Not going to lie I thought of that not that long ago, glad I wasn't the only one. Those are also pretty much the same answers I'd pick tbh.
I am so jealous of your Cassie Clare collection:) great video:))
It's a work in progress hahahah thank you so much!!
Two words: Will. Herondale.
Old video but I like how you've grown and recognize the Jem hate was unnecessary lol.
Love Jem💗 he wanted the best for literally everyone.
1. Tessa Gray
2. Will Herondale
3. Will, Tessa, Jem
4. Sebastian Morgernstern
5. Clockwork
6. City Of Bones
7. Cecily Lightwood (This was so hard, but I still love Isabelle!)
8. London Institute
9. Clockwork Princess
10. Clockwork Princess
BTW. Will is my bookboyfriend which is crazy since I'm gay, yep. Cecily is my bookgirlfriend!
currently reading lady midnight!!! ddid anyone notice this, both protagonist are connected to the antagonist in some weird way. both antagonost want the protagonist to marry them. both secondary protagonist are Herondales. both protagonist created an army. both protagonist are kidnapped.
yes, tid and tmi are very similar hahahaha
Sebastian Morgenstern is the best :O
Yess!! he was the most interesting character IMO, in TMI!
*potential spoiler*
Was really annoyed with what Cassandra did with him at the end of CoHF. 😥
My bae
Yass! Love him sooo much!💖💕
Cassie A I do not like him because he tried to sexually abuse Clary. Edit: He did sexually abuse Clary. I don't understand why y'all stan him.
TMBooks He mass murdered thousands. There was no redemption for a character like that.
Can't decide between Cecily and Izzy too! They're both just so badass!
Ah I love that we have so many kickass females in ya :D
i’m definitely more of a TID and TDA person than I am TMI, but I must say that the first 3 books in TMI are all time favorites of mine. they hold such a special place in my heart and it’s really hard for me to put other books above them
I love TMI. It was the first series I read and there is that love I have for it ❤️ TID is just more relatable for me and it just gets me in my feelings 👑
When u think about it Valentine is more the villain of TMI than Sebastian
Aaaah I'm so attached to both the epilogues from TID and TMI I don't think I would be able to choose! Loved the video
Thanks so much!
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who is in love with Sebastian! Also I love your description lol, great video!!
My king
Why is your eye makeup always so perfect?! Great video btw Xx
Haahah thank you!
Jace was also my very first book boyfriend and still even though Will is great...Jace is Jace no one can compete with him!! Also as far as villains are concerned, both Valentine and Sebastian were by far the best villains I`ve read about, the Magister never intimidated for some reason. Now I`m very curious to watch the previous TMI vs. TDI video 😁
+anthi'sbooknest totally agree!!!!
I am so glad you re-read the series and fell in love with it!
I think i'm going to have to re-read the series this summer because it's been so long :)
+Hannah Smith ah i feel you girl! it still feels like it's been too long for me too :))
I love both series equally😭😭 I love Tessa and Clary, Jace and Will, Sebastian, and Izzy and Cecily! TID was written later on, and the writing was better but TMI will always have a place in mah heart🖤
Thank you for redoing this, I stumbled on your original video first and I really felt like you were unfairly dismissing TID so I'm really glad you revised your opinions.
I just finished Clockwork Princess today, and when you announced the last question, inhuman sounds came from my mouth, and I almost had a breakdown, love this tag though
I'm Team Will all the way,I never liked Jace lol
Reyhan Sevim I liked Jace, but Will is SO much better 😂😂
Reyhan Sevim WILL IS AMAZING
True, I love Will!!!
Want to reread both series soo bad, awesome video as always emma x
+nikki remzz you should definitely give it a shot!!
Aaah I need to this! I just did a Shadowhunters tag, but these questions are so cool too!
The TID love triangle is also the only love triangle I can get behind haha, I love how it's based on everyone just caring about each other TOO MUCH instead of weird jealousy and competition.
Sebastian is definitely one of the best villians ever.
I think our answers for the last two questions would be mirrored! I thought City of Heavenly Fire was SO good compared to Clockwork Princess, but the epilogue of Clockwork Princess was everything lol.
Hahahah that's so funny that were switched XD so glad we agree on most tho!
When i read a book series with a love triangle i get extremely biased. When i first read wessa i had my heart set on them but i slowly started to fall in love with jem
I agree, I've always loved TMI more than TID (though I do love TID) although most people do seem to prefer TID! But hey, more Jace for us!
+Bibliophile hahah yes exactly!!!!!!!!!!
And also clockwork angel cuz it's a WAY better first book than city cuz it was more entertaining for me but I still LOVE LOVE LOVE TMI!💖➰💕
I disagree with you on basically every question where you answer TMI because I love TID SOOOO much more (TMI is still a great series!) I fell in love with TID, maybe because I read it before I read TMI I dunno. I just feel like TID is a better series :D
+Cornelia Sundberg I also read TID first and I love it more than TMI as well. I just love TID so much. It's my favourite series.
Hahaha I can definitely see why you say that! To each their own! All that maters to me is that Cassie Clare gets the recognition she deserves for the worlds she creates :))
i read tid first as well and I absolutely loved it, tmi wasn’t bad but i hated both clary and jace, fortunately sebastian saved the series for me
The infernal devices is just beautiful and much better then tmi!
I think I have to do this tag ASAP. I totally get the attachment to TMI! I made an infernal devices story time video that explains why I think I need to pit these two together as of recently.
you definitely should!!
when people ask me to chose either series, I just CAN'T!!! I love them equally. at the time reading TID, I would have no doubt said TMI but now I just
hahah it is difficult to choose!
i remember the first time you did this and it was awesome
yaaaaas clary still slays
i have definitely moved past being so upset over jessa AND I GET IT NOW TOO
I LOVE LOVE LOVE SEBASTIAN
both sidekicks are perfect how do you choose
what do you mean fictional the institute IS THERE OKAY
clockwork princess was a very intense ending to that trilogy
cohf's epilogue was the best way to end it
im so glad your opinions have changed in a great way!!
We've been through so much together through my shadow hunters journey XD
I just finished Clockwork Angel and I think I like TID a bit more.
I think it really depends at which series you read first. I defiantly prefer TMI, and sort of had the same experience where I'd didn't really like TID to begin with. I've made my peace with it now though. I also just loved Tessa and Will so much, at the time like you I thought Jem was just in the way.

TMI is kind of my Harry Potter since Harry Potter came out before I was born and I was 8 when TMI came out, so I grew up with it and Jace was my 1st book boyfriend. It will always have a special place in my heart.
Before anyone says anything. Yes I have read Harry Potter and yes it's amazing, I just didn't grow up with it.
that's so wonderful!
Oh my god I have to reread this series right now I'm having withdrawal symptoms and feels attacks sorry got to go read bye
YOU MUST
Great videoo!! I love the way you express your thoughts!! I laughed a lot when you explained your previous answer of the love triangle :')!!!!
+Jiff1625 hahahah thank you!!!
I was going to start The Shadowhunter Chronicles with TID but the lady at the shop said to start with TMI. So I'll always have that sentimental tie to TMI more than TID like you said 💙
I think starting at least COB first let's you enjoy TID more ;D so glad we feel the same way!
My story of tmi is like the same as yours. A good friend of mine forced me to watch city of bones, i fell in love with the movie and everything about it and then i found out about the books and read them. To this day it is my favourite series of all time.
that's so lovely!
i took this because i was so confused on which i like better I ended up liking TID better, but i think that had to do with the fact that I read it first, although i also hoped for a which version of Magnus is better question
haha that would've been a great question to add!!
omg i have his bracelet tattooed on my ribs! twins!! my fave character of all time and how described his is WHY I LOVE HIM!!
TWINNING SO HARD
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WITH AN OBSESSION OVER Sebastian! I'm not aloneeeeeeeeeeee! But seriously, he's my favorite character of all time in books. Ever.
+Isa Sanchez you are absolutely not alone!!!!!
emmmabooks glad I'm not
9:21 when you read Lord of Shadows and realize that 1800s London Institute is still the same in 2012 😂
when i read the end of clockwork princess i have never cried so hard in ma life 😂😂
lol there probably will be a new vs tag when the last hours & the dark artifices are finished haha. I love tmi more than tid but tid is still sooooo good
Did anyone else always envision the dallaks from doctor who as the clockwork army?
Sebastian Morgenstern is one of the best villains ever! I am right there with you. I love him so much! He was written so perfectly!
So happy we agree!!!!
I wish I had read TID before our TMI readalong but hey better late than never right! But now that I've read all of them, I actually agree with all of your choices, except for the epilogue one! I think I would've chosen CPrincess because I liked how emotional it made me ahaha
Hahahah yea it definitely was so emotional XD
SEBASTIAN IS LITERALLY ONE OF THE BEST VILLAINS
I need to do this tag soon because I love both of these series (Though I think I prefer TMI just because my children)
GIRL DO IT
I feel like I'm apart of the minority section of the Shadowhunter fandom that prefers The Infernal Devices over The Mortal Instruments. Despite that detail, wonderful video and I love how excited you get over Cassandra Clare books.
+RamblingsOfARavenclaw actually, i feel that most people PREFER tid! hahahah
thank you love, i'm glad to hear you love her books as well :)
My life in one sentence: I was young and stupid and there was no Jace Wayland, and I was really upset.
"Haven't been keeping score this isn't good" ROFLMAO
+K Smith XD XD
ahh ur makeup is so prettyyy
Thank you so much!
I love emmmabooks and I just read infernal devices and I love it I want more Cassandra clare
I love Sebastian too!! No one liked that I love Sebastian.. I'm so glad someone loves him too.
+Sarah Barbee I love him too. You're not alone.
We all love him, if anyone says otherwise they're lying I promise XD
+emmmabooks so true😂😂
I agree with the Sebastian thing
Hey, is it possible to like The Infernal Devices without reading The Mortal Instruments?? Cause I'm about to read it and i need some inspiration.
i love sebastian 2, was crying my eyes out when he became jonathan , think everyone did 😂
I couldn’t stand Tessa bc of how she made out with both of them like hours(?) apart. Who can root for a character basically coming between two best friends?? I’m like you- I read tid right after tmi. And I’ve read tmi 8 times now😳😂 But I remember the only thing I liked about Tessa was her love for books. And that I didn’t understand why people loved Tessa lol. I’m so sorry guys- we all have different feels- please don’t hate me! I’ll try to reread it at some point🤷🏼♀️
JACE IS BAE & that love triangle in TID was one of the best love triangles ever like I totally agree with you hahaha
+sophistikatedfangirl so glad we're on the same page ;D
Hearing you say Jace Wayland was the weirdest thing ever
omg yes Sebastian Morgenstern is also one of my favorite characters of all time!!! he is just amazing and I love him and I always will!!! :)
YASSSSSSS IT IS UNANIMOUS
Omg yes yes I love TMI more then TID too😇 I don't know why ... but many people I know really like TID and I was just like What ???
Who needs jace when you got Will and DEMon pOX
can u also make a video of your recommended way of reading the shadowhunters books?
Clary and Simon was never a thing aha but I actually am not as into the tdi triangle as others. It was obvious that Tessa loved them both but that she loved Will in that way more and Jem goes and proposes and she says Yes! It really frustrated me but the last book made me feel a lot better about the triangle. I like tmi a lot more than tdi and agree with like 99% of your answers.
Can you please do a vid about all your tattoos ❤️➰?
After getting my fourth one this weekend, I'm definitely planning on it :)
omg im wondering if she could do a book shelf tour soon
if so then yay but if not any time soon they alright good anyway
as long i get to see her videos:]
+abel alanya i have to figure out my current shelf situation 'cause i have ZERO space and too many books but i'm hoping to do one soon!
alright its fine :] what ever floats your boat
at least i get to see your terrific video's
[luv ya]
