New Cassandra Clare Trilogy

Honestly I would love to see a sequel to the Last Hours trilogy. My favourite of her books are the Last Hours and Infernal Devices trilogies because I love the victorian/edwardian settings.

My favourite show (ya’ll wouldn’t know it, it’s a fairly unpopular greek tv show from the late 2000s) is set during 1939-1940, during the start of WW2 in Greece. I would really love to see a Shadowhunters series set during WW2 and I know it doesn’t really work with the age gaps of the characters, as any kids the TLH characters have will be around 35 during WW2, so they’ll be too old for a series but too young to have children in their late teens.

But I loved the short story of Tessa as a nurse in WW2 and I would love to see more of the shadow world during that time period.

now that I've had some time to think about Book Three's cover/description, here are some bullet-point thoughts

The art style has vastly improved from Book One. It feels like Tillie's finally comfortable with style, and the characters here don't have same face syndrome here. Also the color palette here is my favorite of the three covers. From everything that I've read from Tillie, the way she works with color is a strong point of her work... which again, makes me wish the entire comic was in color but nooooo...

It looks like Ricca has her own cane now, which makes sense given a bit point of her character through the series is her worsening vision like... even with her glasses, she's practically blind.

Clementine has a new hat. Y'know... because her iconic hat got left with AJ... y'all still remember AJ, right? The comics don't.

Dr. Barnwell the cat made it onto the cover.... you know I'm in too deep with these damn comics when I see some random person be like "Clementine's getting a new cat" and I say, out loud, "That's Dr. Barnwell, you dingus, he's been around since the end of Book One." AS IF ANYONE ELSE CARES!

I know too much about this series, y'all

In my defense, I'm a little snappy about stuff like that after Book Two came out and people were just making shit up about what happens, going as far as to fake screenshots, and tell people it's "just like fifty shades of grey" when uh NO? it's not? People were deliberately trying to deceive others over certain elements and it still makes me mad whenever I think about it.... ANYWAY

We also see Fen and Olivia featured here, too. Fen's one of the more interesting side characters we've gotten, and I'm glad she survived Book Two, and Olivia.... I notice the way she's drawn with the front of her body hidden. I know that's probably to not show spoilers for Book Two since that reveal's a big deal, but still.

"Clementine finally has it all–a safe place to live, a girlfriend, and even a cat…but nothing lasts forever. And when Clementine suffers a loss unlike anything she’s ever faced, a new mentor called The Gardener offers her a new family, and a new way of living… but at what cost?" This is the description we were given.

First of all, Clementine had it all at Ericson, and it didn't make her happy. In fact, it made her so miserable that she left... I kinda hope this book does something with that by giving her everything she wants [as in, the safe home, a romantic partner, friends, a cat, etc] and she's STILL unhappy...? And it ends with her leaving again? But something tells me it won't.

Clementine's going to suffer a loss "unlike anything she's ever faced"? Ehhhh, press X to doubt. I played the games, I lived through all of her losses. I don't think anything will ever top seeing her parents as walkers and then losing Lee right after.

I mentioned before that the obvious direction here would be for Olivia to lose her baby, or for Olivia to die after giving birth, but uh... Clementine's been through both of those things with Christa and Rebecca... but we have to keep in mind that we're so far removed from the games at this point that it's never going to bring those up, y'know?

Real talk though? I'm very intrigued by the idea of a new mentor character called The Gardener who is apparently offering her a new family and a new way of life... but at a cost. What cost? What new way of life? What new family? Are we joining a cult now?

Listen, we missed out on the opportunity for a cannibalism plot in Book One, and Miss Morro left a lot to be desired in Book Two, so like... go extra dark this time. C'mon, Tillie, do it.

Also, Amos is definitely coming back as a twist villain, I feel it in my bones. We didn't see a body at the end of Book One okay!

I'm mostly joking but also NOT JOKING AT ALL!

My offer still stands, if Amos comes back, the book is an automatic 5/5 stars, no questions asked.

Anyway, I'll keep y'all updated on this, and when it releases next year, I'll write my in-depth review... "I read it so you don't have to" and all that.

Just as a final reminder, and allow me to make it extra big so that everyone can see it:

Leave Tillie Walden alone. I don't care if you hate the comics or think they're an insult to the game or whatever else. You want to express that, then do it on your blog. Don't send it to Tillie. We have enough pricks harassing her as is, and you're the bigger asshole here if you think it's okay to send her shit like that, so don't.

Seriously, it's the last book and then Tillie's done with the series, and I doubt they're gonna sign her on to make more. The games still exist, you can still go play them, these comics aren't taking that away from you... and if you feel like they are, then don't engage with them, period. It's not hard.

I cover the comics in-depth for people who don't want to read them but are curious about what happens. They don't bother me in that "they ruined the games" way that they used to, so I can handle it. If you can't, then do yourself a favor and just don't. Just don't!

dandelion is indeed the worst but if he’s not present in the next book i would legitimately be sorrowful as the whole thing will become a slog . you basically cannot have the “short stories” era-of-the-timeline iteration of geralt without dandelion, it would be like eating unbuttered bread.

though it’s not like season of storms did them dirty, i wasn’t disappointed with it (… with regards to them), but since it’s literally been over 20 years since the saga was finished i’m trying to prepare for any potential reality

Sometimes, I really want an animated show about the OT characters. Their adventures, serious and silly, as they become friends and family long before Luke and Leia discover that they're siblings. Stories about Leia struggling with going from princess to general. Luke struggling with being a Jedi and a commander. The Rogue Squadron and their adventures. Han and Chewie barely keeping up with the Space Twin shenanigans.

But, then I remember how each of these characters were treated in the Sequel Trilogy, and I realise that it doesn't matter. No amount of stories about them will change the fact that they all die alone away from each other, that they gave up their childhood, their homes, themselves to the safety of the galaxy and that none of it ever mattered. And I can't enjoy canon stories about them because it won't change their ending, and I can't forget that.

UuuuuuuuuggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhHHHHHHHHHHHHH THEY NERFED ZANE AGAIN!!!! PLEASE can Wildbrain hire someone who can ACTUALLY write him as a character instead of just looking for any and every opportunity to render him useless every single season! It's not even funny anymore!

[science-lings]

They should stop adding new characters to ace attorney and start bringing people back that they implied would be back. Anyway I miss Franziska and Lana specifically

[sheepcreature]

there's ZERO Earthspark toys where I live, whole state fucking empty, I hate this so much

[whitemustang-baby333]

i haven't read tgg yet feeling very left out but there's a part of me who just doesn't want to, because all of the characters are too similar, and because of that, it's hard for me to relate to a character and when i can't relate to a character, it makes it harder for me to enjoy (yes, that sounds increidbly selfish and narcissistic, but oh well)

[trekkele]

oh heres my opinion for a Diana casting: Wonder Woman should be played by a 40+ year old.

She’s a goddess. She’s been alive for centuries. She should look like she’s seen two world wars and a millennia before that!!!

I don’t even have anything new to add about the trailer uhhh… love the steamed punk, the seamless environment puzzle is cool, I hope the cowboy villain is secretly a hot butch babe, uh, hit that big red button down below to manifest flora

[im-still-watching-anime]

the psychic damage i take every time i excitedly click an apollo justice trilogy trailer only to be hit with that god awful voice acting is unreal

[rigginsstreet]

The thing about the new scream movies is that they were taking forever to kill any of the mains and didn’t have the balls to make Sam an actual killer when she was a far more interesting ghostface than any of the ones we got. PLUS yall disrespected neve at every turn so really where were we going with this

[flavia8]

Love my friend, I really do but we definitely have the exact opposite taste in books I think. Though this should have maybe been evident when she "convinced" me to read the Twilight series (which I hated) and I convinced her to read The Bartimaeus Trilogy (Which she hated)

[spursthatjinglejanglejingle]

I don't care about star wars anymore except for when i do. Who give a shit.
