Whoever the anon who asked me to write a young!Maryse fic, here you have a short one!

[tu-vieja-steve]

We're finally going to learn about the Trueblood cousins, I've been waiting for this for YEARS!! I'M SO EXCITED

I also hope she'll someday explain who those Lightwood cousins ​​are that Alec mentions in his dream in CoHF and if Robert and Martin Gladstone were first cousins, if Martin had children and Alec and Isabelle have second cousins Gladstone

Will we get to see clary and jace in the wicked powers? How are they doing?

Well, at the beginning, they're fine like everyone else! You will see them in TWP — and there's a story about them in Better in Black that also involves Maryse's lost brother (remember, he married a mundane and got his Marks stripped) which I think is really fun.

Everybody say happy birthday to Robert Lightwood!

Our favourite Lightwood-grandpa would be 55, he was born on the 17th of September of 1965.

In the movie adaptation of City of Bones, sadly, there was no Robert... but he was portrayed by Paulino Nunes in the tv series.

what do you need to know about him?

Robert didn’t respond well to his first mark, so much so that he wasn’t in a good health state for around a month. his parent chose to not give up because cutting the mark would make him a mundane

after the accident of his first mark, he was afraid of marking himself, but he managed to overcome his fear thanks to Michael Wayland

he was Michael’s Parabatai

he attended the Shadowhunter Academy a year after his peers due to the bad reaction to the first mark

he was a former member of the Circle

his Parabatai fell in love with him, but he rejected him immediately

he was Maryse Trueblood’s husband

he has three children: Alec, Isabelle and Maxwell, plus Jace who was adopted

after the Uprising he was banished - along with Maryse and his first child - from Idris

he had an extra-maritial affair with Annamarie Highsmith, but it ended as soon as Maryse was expecting their third child

he didn’t notice Michael’s death - caused by Valentine - because of the long time spent away from each other

he became the Inquisitor

his favourite weapon was the broadsword

even though he didn’t fully accepted Alec’s love-life decisions, he ended up supporting him and caring for his grandsons

Maryse and Robert ended up divorcing, but they still managed to keep in touch

he died in 2012, at 47 years old, because of Annabel Blackthorn, who stabbed him with the Mortal Sword during her interrogatory

What if Isabelle and Alec have a cousin?

If you remember in the books was said that Maryse had/s a brother,Maxwell Trueblood, who left the Clave,so he can marry a mundane.

And what if her brother has a child.It's said that they removed Maxwell's marks,but what if the baby was conceived way before they removed his marks?

And maybe somewhere in the world there is a little Trueblood having no idea about the shadow world,his father's past and how cool his family is.

No one sent me asks from this list about my 2019 reading year, so I answered all of them, because I wanted to and because I can. Enjoy!

How many books did you read this year?

35! My highest number on Goodreads record is 38, so I almost beat out my highest number to date, but I’m pleased with the 35 I did read.

Did you reread anything? What?

I like to reread books, and this year I reread Little Women and The Tale of Despereaux

What were your top five books of the year?

In no particular order: The Good Neighbor: The Life and Work of Fred Rogers by Maxwell King Pachinko by Min Jin Lee Yale Needs Women by Anne Gardiner Perkins The Scarlet Forest by A.E. Chandler Meg, Jo, Beth, Amy: The Story of Little Women and Why It Still Matters by Anne Boyd Rioux

Did you discover any new authors that you love this year?

Not particularly… Although I did read two books by Monica Hesse. Both were good, but they didn’t blow me away. I was just intrigued enough by the first book, to pick up another one. What genre did you read the most of?

It doesn’t really count as a genre, but I did read 34.3% nonfiction, followed by 31.4% historical fiction. 

Was there anything you meant to read, but never got to?

Yes, unfortunately. I made a 2019 TBR just because, without designating it as a concrete goal, but I’m still sad that five of the books never made it onto my “read” list.

Affinity by Sarah Waters *When We Were Outlaws by Jeanne Cordova *84, Charing Cross Road by Helene Hanff Pages For You by Sylvia Brownrigg Journey to a Woman by Ann Bannon

* denotes books I tried to read but were inaccessible due to library availability. All of these books are being carried over to my 2020 TBR. 

What was your average Goodreads rating? Does it seem accurate?

3.6 is my average, which feels okay, but I do feel like I had a lot of great books this year! Ten 5 star books, and eleven 4 star books. My average does feel mostly accurate, but I might tip it up a bit to 3.8.

Did you meet any of your reading goals? Which ones?

I didn’t set any particular reading goals other than to not set a reading goal, haha. I set my Goodreads challenge to 1 to relieve all pressure and allow myself to just enjoy reading. I made a TBR just to keep my focus narrowed, but I didn’t make it to force myself to read any of the books. I definitely enjoyed my reading this past year, I am pleased with the non-goals that I set.

Did you get into any new genres?

I think I definitely read a lot more nonfiction this year, and I think it’s something I definitely want to continue doing. Many of my favorite books of the year were nonfiction. 

What was your favorite new release of the year?

Yale Needs Women by Anne Gardiner Perkins! This book is about when Yale became co-ed, and follows the lives of various female students who were the first women at Yale. I would highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone. 

What was your favorite book that has been out for a while, but you just now read?

I tend to read more of the backlist than new releases, so this one is tough. As it turns out, I think my favorite is a tie between Pachinko by Min Jin Lee and The Scarlet Forest by A.E. Chandler. Both were published in 2017. 

Any books that disappointed you?

Ugh. Yes. The Daylight Gate by Jeanette Winterson, Nottingham by Nathan Makaryk, and Sherwood by Meagan Spooner. 

What were your least favorite books of the year?

The Daylight Gate by Jeanette Winterson and Women in the Shadows by Ann Bannon. 

What books do you want to finish before the year is over?

The year is already over. I was in the middle of two books, which I would have liked to have finished: A Tale for the Time Being by Ruth Ozeki and Ghosts of the Tsunami: Death and Life in Japan’s Disaster Zone by Richard Lloyd Parry. I finished A Tale for the Time Being today (01/03), and will probably finish the second in the next few days. 

Did you read any books that were nominated for or won awards this year (Booker, Women’s Prize, National Book Award, Pulitzer, Hugo, etc.)? What did you think of them?

After a quick couple Google searches, I don’t think I read any books nominated for or won awards. 

What is the most over-hyped book you read this year?

I feel like I read several books that had a good amount of hype (either this year or in previous years). The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon, Pachinko by Min Jin Lee, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid, among others. But I enjoyed many of my hyped books as much as I expected. With one exception. I was not a fan of Girls of Paper and Fire by Natasha Ngan. Ugh, that was an over-hyped and unenjoyable book. 

Did any books surprise you with how good they were?

Pachinko surprised me. But otherwise, I don’t think so. I have a pretty good sense of which books I like, and if I don’t like something, I can DNF it a chapter or two into the book, guilt-free. Life is too short for unenjoyable books. 

How many books did you buy?

4. 

Did you use your library?

So much. That’s why I only bought four books. Overdrive and my Kindle are my best friends while I’m living in the Japanese countryside, far away from access to English books. 

What was your most anticipated release? Did it meet your expectations?

I really don’t track new releases, so I didn’t anticipate any new books this year.

Did you participate in or watch any booklr, booktube, or book twitter drama?

I watch plenty of Booktube, but I don’t follow channels that participate in drama. The most “drama” I participated in was watching Ariel Bissett’s video about the difficulties of being a book reviewer and reviewing a book published by a close friend (referencing Christine Riccio’s new book.) But I don’t think that’s drama. I think it’s an honest opinion about her experience and very positive content.

What’s the longest book you read?

I think it’s probably The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samatha Shannon. 

What’s the fastest time it took you to read a book?

I haven’t the faintest idea. And I don’t want to dig through my Goodreads to find out. 

Did you DNF anything? Why?

I DNFed Sherwood by Meagan Spooner. For many reasons. But mostly because I felt it did a disservice to real medieval women by over-writing history and promoting incorrect assumptions in order to write a modern feminist Robin Hood retelling. A badly written retelling to boot.

I also DNFed Across a Broken Shore by Amy Trueblood and Invictus by Ryan Graudin.

What reading goals do you have for next year?

My Goodreads reading challenge is already set to 1, and I plan on enjoying my reading as much this year, as I did last year. I also want to read Ivanhoe by Sir Walter Scott and England Under Norman and Angevin Kings, 1075-1225 by Robert Bartlett. Otherwise, I have a focused TBR that I am free to ignore if I wish.

Max Ligthwood

Acabo de recordar que Max Michael Lightwood - Bane fue nombrado asi por Maxwell Joseph Lightwood quien a su vez fue nombrado asi por Maxwell Trueblood...

ahora no se si llorar o sentirme feliz...

[sarcasmshield]

I's my godgiven RIGHT to know what happened to Maxwell Trueblood!

[runesbroken]

Maryse Aesthetic; Younger&Maxwell Trueblood

[favorsbroadswords-blog]

Harry Potter AU tho. 

Maryse as a Death Eater 

Primary house, Slytherin, secondary Ravenclaw tbh. 

Marrying Robert Lightwood, to uphold the family name after Maxwell ran off with a mundane. 

So angry at her brother she never talks with him again because he doomed the Trueblood name 

Her babies are so purely breed 👌

God gods she moved to America after the first wizarding war. cos otherwise she’d need to deal with: WHY IS MY BABIES GRIFFINDORS jeez now they have to share dorms with lesser people. 

Max’s killed by death eaters to send a message after she doesn’t answer Voldi’s call. (New tattoo who dis?)

So angry, you’ve never seen her more furious or sad, she’s going back to England to fight that fucker. 

Robert wanting to disown Alec because of Magnus, 

Fuck no, Maryse ain’t having it, and becomes a blood traitor along with her bbies. 

Still won’t speak a word with her brother because she’s petty and deals poorly with feeling abandoned. 

[bravemercutio]

vivacephoenix said: I wonder if he’s still out there somewhere. Do the Lightwood kids have cousins they’ve never met?

I can imagine they do! He left the Clave to marry a mundane, and as a guess it wouldn't be too off=base to assume he had children.

But also, that might mean that an Institute wherever Max went might have taken them away to train at some point, as is allowed for the children of ex-nephilim, which is awful.

Hm.... this could be quite interesting

[vraisang-a]

VISUAL SERIES + Maxwell and Maryse Trueblood

Max was Maryse’s whole world as a child, and when he left the Clave for a mundane woman, it absolutely destroyed his little sister to part with him. It is a hurt that Maryse carries with her into her adult life, and has caused her to suffer from separation anxiety. 

personals do not interact !

[queenhelenblackthorn]

I really want to meet or at least have a refence to Maryse's family, the Truebloods, and the circumstances surrounding her brother Max's departion from the shadowhunters

[jonathanspenguinboxers]

Phenomenal fic, please go read it, it’s so in character for Maryse
