Hello internet
people! To start here’s some information
about me as a reader. I read a lot and there
are so many books to choose from, but my favorite book is The Eternal Ones. I love The
Eternal Ones because of the characters.
Haven is the main character and she’s one of the spunkiest fearless
girls I’ve ever met. She doesn’t let
anyone hold her back from achieving what she wants. In the book, there are many people trying to
degrade Haven because of her personality that doesn’t really fit in her sleepy
town in the south. I also love her best
friend Bo, who is just as fearless as Haven, because he absolutely loves Haven
and would do anything to keep her happy and safe. Not to mention, he’s so flamboyant and
hilarious. My favorite genres on books
are sci-fi and fantasy. I love those
books that mix the modern day issues with a fantasy twist.
Right now, I am currently
reading Clockwork Prince by Cassandra
Clare. She’s one of my absolute favorite
authors and this book is the prequel to the Mortal Instruments series, which is
absolutely to die for. So, Clockwork Prince takes place in London,
England during the early 1800’s. It
stars Tessa Gray , an American orphan that comes to England to live with her
brother Nate, and Jem Carstairs and Will Herondale, two young Shadowhunters. Jem and Will are Shadowhunters, a race
derived of angels set to kill demons.
Jem and Will are both orphans, but while Jem is kind and gentle Will is
scowls and cockiness. Tessa comes to
England to live with her brother after their aunt dies. When Tessa reaches London there are two
strange ladies who pick her up, convincing her that Nate, Tessa’s brother, sent
them. This is absolutely false. The two strange ladies are called the Dark
Sisters and are forcing Tessa to hone her strange talent. Tessa can shape shift into someone if she has
a personal belonging of theirs. The
strange part is that Tessa can also unlock that person’s memories and
thoughts. Then, one day after two months
the sisters say that Tessa is ready to go to the Magister, but Tessa refuses and
fights. In that moment Jem and Will come
across the building and surprise Tessa.
The boys help Tessa escape and kill one of the sisters. Jem and will take Tessa back to their home
the Institute. The conflict is a character
vs. fate since Tessa never meant for her to get kidnapped and lose Nate. Tessa
relies on the help of the Institute to find Nate. The other Shadowhunters at the Institute help
uncover has been already dealing with this world with his employer Mortmain. They both belong to the Pandemonium Club,
humans who think they can handle magic.
Eventually the Shadowhunters figure out that Mortmain is the Magister
and that he is constructing a clockwork automaton army charged with demon
energies that will actually bring them to life.
Mortmain needed Tessa all along for some mysterious reason. Tessa pretends to kill herself using her ability,
knowing Mortmain needed her. Tessa successfully
tricks Mortmain, but he gets away and the clockwork army kills some of the
staff at the Institute. Tessa still
doesn’t know much about her past, but she knows something big is going to
happen.
Thanks for reading! Hope you liked my first post on my new blog.
