[@Caraphatash]

I'm 100% convinced on Kit and Ty becoming a couple and being the protagonists of the last series.

[@emmmabooks]

YAS YAS YAS

[@vivylovatic1327]

The only theory I am 100% sure about is that Lord of Shadows is going to be A SOB FEST. And I am not mentally prepared for it.

[@emmmabooks]

IM DYING

[@aoife4495]

Vivy Lovatic it was 😢😢😢

[@xyzcrazy4231]

"kit and ty are going to be the main characters of the wicked powers fIGHT ME" HAHAHAHAHA LOVE YOUR PASSION GIRL AND YES I A TRILOGY WITH GAY PROTAGONISTS I WANTT

[@emmmabooks]

ME TOOOOOOO

[@kevinkelly_]

I've been waiting for this since your theories are the most important to me 😂 OMG YES THAT KIT AND TY RELATIONSHIP BETTER HAPPEN!!! I SUPPORT THIS THEORY SO HARD!!!!!!

[@emmmabooks]

ahah omg i'm so flattered THEY MUST BE TOGETHER

[@jonathangough1994]

Better then malec I thought that malec was thristy in the movie I read cob in 2011

[@lahlybird895]

You did not just say that Malik is freaking awesome and yes Ty and kit belong together to although I'm not sure as relationship through his parabatai it's weird it's kind of another love triangle between Thai kit and Livvy

[@michaelbooklion7824]

20 minutes of Emma, starting my morning off right!

[@KatTheBooknerd]

as one does. :P

[@emmmabooks]

omg ily

[@sydneywilson4748]

'There gonna become boyfriends their gonna be the main characters of the Wicked Powers. FIGHT ME!' Right. that's so relatable

[@jonathangough1994]

Preeched

[@abbeebadooboo]

"Haha, she actually doesn't love Jace and their all going to die. Gotcha!" 😂😂😂😂 But for real, I loved your theory for the long conversation. 😍

[@emmmabooks]

thank you!

[@leahkoppe2123]

Maybe Angel Nightshade was a Shadowhunter but fell in love with his Parabatei. The Clave has found out about the relationship between him and his Parabatei and wanted to chase him. They took his runes after that he was able to escape but was bitten and turned into a Vampire. Maybe Ansel has found a way to control the power of the "Parabatei Love" and could help Emma. I now it's not a good theorie. But it is really hard to explain what I think about. Sorry for my bad English. Hope you can comprehend the theory just a little bit.

[@annatani7842]

Leah Köppe that actually makes sense, I'm rooting for it

[@emmmabooks]

YOU JUST BLEW MY MINDDDDDDDDD

[@kairanelle1380]

Ok does anyone remember when Emma and Julian talked to Magnus on page 157 (in hardcover) MAGNUS " .*mentions Helens wedding*..Though it wasn't the last wedding I saw you at was it ? JULIAN: I'm pretty sure it was. What other wedding would it have been? MAGNUS: "Hmmm perhaps my memory is going in my old age " He didn't sound as if he thought that was likely though" GUYS! Cassie Clare would not put it in the book if it wasn't important! Any theories?

[@tessaherondalegray2121]

Gosia Berendt Omg!!! I totally didn't notice that. TIME TRAVEL? Maybe Clary will invent time travel tune (theory from Polandbananasbooks )

[@Cathrin1801]

This was Jem and Tessa's wedding although I don't know why Magnus erased their memories of it.

[@kairanelle1380]

+Cat How do you know?

[@emmmabooks]

tmisource.com/2014/12/02/cassandra-clare-shares-comic-strip-scene-from-city-of-heavenly-fire/ this comic strip confirms threy were at jem and tessa's wedding but that's such an interesting point that they don't remember it!!!

[@Cathrin1801]

You beat me to copying the link, Emma. :D I really wonder why Julian and Emma can't remember the wedding, maybe we will find out eventually. Magnus should know that erasing memories isn't a good idea.

[@1direction8880]

YES OH MY GOD KIT AND TY IM GLAD IM NOT THE ONLY ONE OBSESSED WITH THE BLACKTHORN TWINS AND KIT HERONDALE

[@stephpiano2908]

Emma you are going to be so damm victorious when Ansel Nighshade suddenly becomes an important character! I'm rooting for you 😉

[@emmmabooks]

I WILL THROW THE BOOK OUT MY WINDOW IN EXCITEMENT

[@KimCarlton23]

While I love the theory about Julian being the Lord of Shadows, it says in the synopsis for the book that the Unseelie King is the Lord of Shadows!

[@emmmabooks]

fun fact: i never read the synopsis because tend to go into the book totally blind ahhah that's good to know though!!!

[@marcominhos7731]

I had a teory that Emma will be the Queen of Air and Darknes because of all that thing with the book. But since the titles haven't been refering to the protagonists do you thing that this "Queen of Air and Darknes" could be the daughter of Sebastian and the Seelie Queen!?!? She could be the villain of The Wicked Powers! Sorry if there is something wrong with the sentence, I'm from Portugal and I love your videos!

[@katerinam1020]

Haven't read "Lady midnight" yet, so i didn't watch the video, but I came only to hit that like button

[@emmmabooks]

awh thank you so much!

[@aideeng8259]

Kit and Ty for life!!!! As soon as I finished LM I was on the theory of them being the MCs in TWP! I just can't! I'm such a fangirl when it comes to them! I 100% agree with what you said about Clace and how it's a positive thing that CC is using her books to share the message to girls/women that they are capable of making decisions and they don't need to marry young or at all! One one of my theories is the Seelie Queen plays a role in the somehow and offers Emma or Jules something to help with their predicament but at a price and it all goes wrong cause it's the seelie queen and she like the devil!

[@xavierramirez4465]

OMG THANK YOU FOR AGREEING WITH ME ABOUT THE TY AND KIT THING!!!!!!!!!!

[@emmmabooks]

YAS IM NOT ALONE

[@montserratbello3783]

*BIG GIANT ANNABEL THEORIE* ANNABEL AND EVA BLACKTHORN (Tobias Herondale's wife) WERE SISTERS. Ok. I will try to make this as short as I can. But, firstly, sorry for the grammar. English is not my first language. So, I may have spoiled myself reading the recent posts in Cassie's Tumblr and the Shadowhunters-wikia and (YEAH) TfSA but here's the information I pulled out of these things. Tumblr: Answering a question of why Malcom believed the lie of the whole Annabel-thing coming from other people who weren't even born (Tessa, Jem), Cassie told us the romance between Annabelle and Malcom happened in the 1820 decade. Shadowhunters-wiki: Another warlock will be introduced. The question here is. Have we ever seen this warlock before? So, while I was reading the second story in TfSA (TLH), I realized that Tobias Herondale was married to Eva BLACKTHORN. This events happened in 1827. So clicking and connecting all this information, what if Eva and Annabel were sisters? They were Blackthorn, so they're family! But remember, Tobias lost his mind because an spell A WARLOCK CASTED ON HIM. Then, we know the Clave killed Eva because of her husband's "treason". The Blackthorns always knew all this shit was wrong! They knew this situation was UNFAIR! And that could perfectly explain why they chose "Lex malla, lex nulla" as their family motto. It was because of Warlock why their beloved Eva died, they knew it wasn't Tobias' fault! The only crime he ever commited was to love Eva so much for him to go after her, thinking she was in pain. So, when the Blackthorns realized Annabel and Malcom were in a relationship (I suppose Annabelle's family didn't ever know she and Malcom were close), HER HIGHBORN KINSMEN CAME to stop what these two had! Because, why would the Blackthorns allow one of his daughters to date a Warlock, knowing it was a Warlock's fault the life of Eva and Tobias ended up in the way it had! Bringing that knowledge to LoS, maybe if Annabel really wakes up,(idk if Annabel will come back as a zombie but let's think she does not) will Catarina Loss be appearing because she saved that steam of the Herondale line and help Annabel accep what happened back then in 1820 cause she will discover that Kit is the descendent of this giant lost line of Herondales. Annabelle is like a GREAT GREAT GREAAAAAAAAT AUNT fot Kit. And something is going to happened with these two. I don't know what, but this is real shit._.

[@tkfan123]

Seeing emmmabooks' video Lord of Shadows theories Reaction: Stops doing everything and internally screaming

[@emmmabooks]

[@st4rb0y333]

T B legit same

[@tkfan123]

What are your opinions on Kieran? All the reviews I have seen say that they hate him but I personally love him.

[@aflowerthatcannotbebloomed]

yass that was my reaction. I do like Kieran. I find him very interesting

[@tkfan123]

I LOVE HIM SO MUCH. I JUST WANT TO GIVE HIM A HUG.

[@emliving]

All I could think of when Tessa was saying that you couldn't stop loving somebody but you could do something to make somebody lose their love for you was how Will basically did that in TID. You have such great theories! These videos make me anticipate Lord of Shadows even more than I already do.

[@abbeebadooboo]

This book is going to be a rollercoaster, I'm so pumped and scared.

[@emmmabooks]

you put it perfectly into words hahahh

[@ashnic0313]

Cassie Clare fucks with my mind so much, there's too many possibilities ahhh

[@emmmabooks]

literally same lmao

[@annal8043]

Omg, I really hope you are right about Kit and Ty. For some reason I had the feeling that one of them is going to die either in Lord of Shadows or in the next book, but if what you say is true? My heart will be forever filled with happiness. Watching this even doubled my excitement for Lord of Shadows! :D

[@emmmabooks]

I WILL DIE IF THEY DIE

[@aoife1849]

FOUR people?!?! Holy shit I'm not ready.. Great vid btw

[@emmmabooks]

THIS BOOK WILL BE THE DEATH OF ME

[@jessicacapper3733]

I cannot wait for LOS!! I have pre-ordered the paperback and the Kindle version haha... I cannot wait for more Kit and Ty!! I so agree about Anselm Nightshade, there is a 0% chance that is coincidence. What do you think about Mark and Kieran?

[@emmmabooks]

after rereading LM i definitely don't hate kieran as much as i thought i did,so i'm excited to see where they go together in LOS!

[@charlotteschapter7653]

This has made me so excited for Lord of Shadows even though I'm going to wait to read it until after my exams :( I love your theory about Kit and Ty and I love them and want them to be happy forever!

[@emmmabooks]

eek i hope those exams go by quickly!

[@lilysdreamworld6386]

Watching this now and hearing you talk about Kit, Livvy and Ty living happily ever after hurts. Like...they deserved so much better

[@vivylovatic1327]

6:35 actually describes me thinking about Lord of Shadows

[@emmmabooks]

omg same XD

[@georgegravil5600]

My theory: Anselm nightshade is Kit's father. I could be wrong, but from what we learn in Tales from the SA, Tobias heronadale didn't exactly die. He went mad in the woods, but Catarina I don't think announced him dead. What if he ran into a vampire, or a clan, and got Turned? Vampirism can apparently cure many illnesses and makes u look 'perfect' by ridding u of ur aesthetic imperfections, so why not of mental illness? Anselm is in fact Tobias Herondale, and therefore this links onto the theory that Anselm was once a shadowhunter, leading Kit to be his great great (etc.) grandson

[@soawsome970]

I totally agree with the Clary/Jace theory. Something else I noticed (which could be insignificant but cmon it's Cassie Clare) was that in Tales of the Shadowhunter Academy, Alec asks Magnus about marriage at one point. Magnus said that it wouldn't/couldn't happen (probably because of the clave). Cassie makes it obvious though that they can be happy without marriage. I meant they have TWO KIDS. So anyway, to prove my point, Cassandra Clare is well aware that people can be in love without marriage and I definitely think she can use this plot point for Jace and Clary.

[@emmmabooks]

yes yes yes!!!!!

[@alysamorley3570]

I love how excited you get for Shadowhunter stuff. I'm so ready for it. I'm doing a reread soon to get myself prepared. I feel like I've been waiting so long!

[@Sara-hz4ne]

OMG YES KIT AND TY!!! I LOVE THEM SOO MUCH

[@emmmabooks]

MY PRECIOUS BABIES

[@marinasampaolesi1340]

OMG I just found your channel yesterday and I literally watched all you videos in a marathon!!!! You are so nice and fun to listen, congrats on this beautifully channel!!! OH AND YOU ARE A DEVOTED SHADOWHUNTER FAN, that's what bought me for real, like I needed someone who shared the love for the shadow hunter chronicles♥️ In my group of friends I am kind of an outcast because no one reads , so I just don't have anyone that shares aaaaaaallllll the feels and love for characters. I'm sorry this comment is too long, I'm just very happy I found this channe!

[@ashleyk3348]

You are legit me talking about Kit and Ty. Great theories video!

[@emmmabooks]

thank you!

[@kaysiajorja6176]

i love watching your theories on the shadow hunter world because you remember like everything and it's amazing

[@catarinafernandes6950]

Just the video I was waiting for!!!! And honestly Emma your theories never cease to blow my mind so don't worry they aren't terrible at all! YES KIT LIVVY AND TY THAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN IF ONE OF THEM DIES THAT'S GOING TO BE THE DEATH OF ME! I also can't wait to see where this anselm nightshade thing is going, we know very well that cc doesn't name characters at random. And hopefully you're right about A Long Conversation!! I just can't wait for this book!!!! Love you Emma kisses from Portugal!!

[@emmmabooks]

hahha thank you

[@zuzanalukyova4328]

Omg, Emma, you blew my mind with this video! I'm honestly so excited for Lord of Shadows because of your theories now! And that reminds me, I gotta reread Lady Midnight soon too 😁

[@emmmabooks]

ahaha awh thank you!

[@Sildroher]

I am absolutely IN LOVE with this backdrop!

[@deniskeeee]

wow, another Shadowhunters themed video, thank you again Emma, you made my day!!! :)

[@emmmabooks]

thank YOU for watching!

[@flymetothemoon3157]

I freaking love watching your Shadowhunters related videos. We need Ty and Kit like please (May is going to be my doom with ACOWAR and LS coming out)

[@emmmabooks]

thank you! may is the craziest month for book releases always XD

[@mckenzieread]

Really interesting ideas! This has got me pumped for May 23rd!!! (totally support the Clace conversation at the end)

[@annaj323]

yeeEes, so happy you made a theory vid for lord of shadows!! i'm so excited for lord of shadows!! also yes, i need the wicked powers to be about ty and kit. ty was one of my favourite characters in lady midnight (i actually hardcore love him because he and his way of being and like... not being able to fit in normal schooling systems and such, is a lot like my own little brother. i'm so glad cassie created a character like him) also, with the lord of shadows, i think it could indeed be jules! though at first i though it might be a reference to james because we know that the dark artifices and the last hour are going to intertwine. we don't know how yet, but i think the fact that they're going to the london institute (home base of the last hour kiddos) and that the title of this book is lord of darkness says enough.

[@LeaMariaMusic]

Yaaaaay! !!!!!! Thank you Emma I needed that! I love your videos and I was anxiously awaiting a TDA video😍 I'm soooooooooo exited!

[@emmmabooks]

so am i!!!!

[@celine3302]

omg I'm so excited for LoS! It comes out on my birthday (May 23) and my best friend already ordered it for me! Love your theories, I have so much respect for people who are able to come up with those!

[@emmmabooks]

happy almost birthday! :)

[@ok5496]

This have nothing to do with your video but i just wanted to let you know how much you videos help me! I'm currently battling depression and anxiety and watching your videos always makes me feel a little better! Especially when i feel anxious! Love ya!

[@KatTheBooknerd]

WOAH...that was a rollercoaster of theories! I really need to speed up my rereading of the Shadowhunter Chronicles cos I'm only half way through (my 4th reread i think) city of ashes.

[@emmmabooks]

ah it's so close!!

[@lillizardreads4391]

I've never wanted to high five someone for their opinion/theory so much in my life. I love how well thought out your theory of A Long Conversation was. It's very refreshing.

[@emmmabooks]

thank you!!!!!!

[@sandyreadsalot]

I can definitely see Julian becoming really dark in this book, especially with the whole Mark and Emma thing. I'm so excited to see where Kit and Ty's relationship goes!

[@katinhattalks5546]

I love your speculation about the role Ansel Nightshade will play! I've seen it in a few of your videos but it's just so genius and honestly never something I could've thought of 😋 also I love your interpretation of Clary's hesitation!

[@pierashannon]

Watching this makes me wish I was into the whole Shadowhunters thing because you make it sound so incredible and intricate, which is something I absolutely love! Grr, maybe I'll have to try again with it all some day ;P

[@vivylovatic1327]

hahahaha I love your determination in defending Clace at the end, i totally agree.

[@emmmabooks]

so glad to hear someone else agrees!

[@emi6193]

You're excitement for the shadow hunters chronicles and their ships is infectious😂May 23 can't come fast enough 😩

[@emmmabooks]

its so sooooon!!!!!

[@immiesophie5320]

THIS VIDEO WAS SO NEEDED! I've been sitting here watching this video with my head phones in, squealing, and my family have been giving me some strange looks. 😂 KIT AND TYYYYY though!!!

[@Whitney8605]

ugh so anxious and nervous for LOS and the fact that we have to wait two years for the last one doesn't help at all

[@emmmabooks]

IM DREADING THE WAIT

[@Beckyynicolee]

EMMA I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS BOOK SINCE LADY MIDNIGHT CAME OUTTTTTT thank you for making my dayy

[@zoethebookaholic7738]

YES!!! If Kit and Ty don't get together I think I'm going to cry- they're my OTP!!

[@emmmabooks]

THEY MUST

[@sweetheart037]

It's so interesting that you talked about the Nightshade name bc I also caught that while I read LM bc the day before I had looked at all the family trees XD

[@heloikeda]

Emma I loved your theories!! I'm also obsessed with "Kitty" already

[@MT-lk7qt]

I love your Clary/Jace and Anselm Nightshade theories!

[@emmmabooks]

thank you!

[@zuzanacarstairs9532]

Great video, Emma! These theories are amazing. :) Honestly, the fact that Cassie said she'll confirm who will be the leads in TWP after this book makes me think that one of the four characters who die in this book will be a character who could, without their death, very well be one of those leads. I really don't think Kit or Ty will die- I really do think they will be the main characters in TWP, but Livvy I am less sure about. I don't want it to happen at all, but I feel like she might die and that Ty may then start to wish that he had become parabatai with her because he will no longer have that option. And deeply regretting not becoming parabatai could serve as a great contrast to Emma and Julian's situation (and possibly lead Ty to focus on them and notice that something is wrong). Plus, another main Blackthorn could be Dru who was almost more present I feel in Lady Midnight than Livvy was. I feel like the two is meant to mislead us, and Dru won't be too young. Also, I feel like something big is going to happen and make us even more attached to Dru in this book, considering we are going to England where her aunt who is absolutely horrible to her about her body is. Part of TWP could be the fact that Ty and Dru both have extended family members who really don't understand or want to understand them or how they are hurting them and how Kit's dad who is gone didn't want him to understand himself.

[@KingaZajacNNR]

God, Shadowhunters books are such a guilty pleasure for me! I don' t think about it, I'm not waiting for the next ones, but when I watch a video like that I go crazy into it and need it! I hope they're gonna translate it in my county really quick, because I'm not paying for an English copy, tho I don't like reading translations.

[@mmmcookies8814]

I'm glad I'm rereading all the books right now because apparently I don't remember that much from Lady Midnight... Your expertise makes my head spin =D

[@zoethebookaholic7738]

Jace: think of the sound of 'Clary Herondale' Clary: Oh, my God, that sounds horrible Maybe Clary doesn't want to get married because she doesn't want to take his name?? 😂😂

[@emmmabooks]

LOL OMG I HOPE WHEN SHE GIVES HIM HER ANSWER HE SAYS "IS IT BECAUSE CLARY HERONDALE SOUNDS HORRIBLE"

[@GalliFreya]

i hadn't realised until I watched this how much of Lady Midnight I've completely forgotten.

[@emmmabooks]

it's a massive book so don't get yourself down ;)

[@gaybitch5198]

Love love love your thoughts on Jace and Clary!!

[@MUSICHEART1999]

omg yes gurl I've been waiting for this video.

[@emmmabooks]

[@laurakish4707]

I like your Ansel Nightshade theory. Another thing I've been thinking of is "why would Clary still be involved in the series?" I know she's a friend of Emma and co., but if she's tries to help Ansel because they're related... it seems more plausible

[@emmmabooks]

that's a great theory!

[@coffeestainedpages6332]

You are adding oil to my imaginative fire - but I enjoy burning while I wait for this book! :D

[@lilmissalice3]

i actually think ty is going to become a centurion and by the time he comes back the Wicked Powers will begin because i also do think he and kit are the main two in that series (also gives cassclare a perfect way to angst up their relationship by splitting them up before TWD.. which is PAIN but im too excited to mind) i've read somewhere that ppl think livvy and kit will be parabatai instead which isn't terrible.. i loved the rest of your thoughts though so much! this is just what i was thinking for kitty in particular :D

[@emmmabooks]

ooh that's definitely possible too!!

[@squidy2343]

I've read all the Shadowhunter books (aside from the Bane Chronicles) and even read the Mortal Instruments books a second time in preparation for City of Heavenly Fire, but I swear, I still miss so much information. I just can't keep all the details straight. Watching this video vaguely brought back snippets of Lady Midnight but I feel like I'd need to reread it to really get into Lord of Shadows. But the books are all so big! I don't know how Cassie keeps everything coherent when everything is intertwined and just weaved together so intricately. Kudos to her, and to all the readers who can keep track as well. I think I just get so into the fast paced feel of the books that I don't fully retain everything I read. It's almost like the first read through is similar to just skimming the book even though I read all of it. I just wish I could follow it better and remember all the details.

[@maiasitter677]

I love your energy! And your Shadowhunter shelf. ❤ That shelf is #goals! This video completes me. ❤ Lol. But...seriously. Love this video!!!

[@beautifulday1996]

This really makes me want to reread lady midnight

[@emmmabooks]

it's so close!

[@emiliyakott]

AHHHH, this got me so excited!!! ❤🙌

[@Tanya-ce9sv]

I am SO EXCITED for LoS!! I just finished re reading LM in preparation. I love all these theories! I feel like Anselm is going to play a pretty interesting part in LoS. Why do we have to lose so many characters!!! Casssiiieeeee whhhyyy? 😢😢

[@emmmabooks]

i finished my reread recently too! I DONT WANT ANY OF MY FAVS TO DIE

[@MsFictionfanatic]

"Kit and Ty are going to be the main characters in The Wicked Powers FIGHT ME" me af lmao

[@AshleyTripleA]

'Livvy and Ty will become Parabatai' Sobbing.

[@emmmabooks]

DONT REMIND ME

[@peachyedits8954]

Imagine Cassie shuts down this Emma and Mark theory in the first 50 pages. We would all be so disappointed. I totally agree with your theories. You shocked me when you said that 4 named Characters are going to die in Lord of Shadows because unlike in TMI when Cassie killed six characters that weren't really that popular or loved where as in Lady Midnight we were not introduced to anyone like that(I don't know if that made sense but the point is I am scared for my characters)

[@emmmabooks]

i am scared as well!!

[@parmazharana]

Ahhh! Theory video. Love this ❤️❤️❤️ so excited for lord of shadows. Ps. Literally dropped everything when I saw this video.

[@emmmabooks]

awh you're the best!!!

[@TheHexedLibrary]

So many good theories here! I can't really decide where I am in the camp of theories, it's been too long since I've read the later books of TMI and honestly, Lady Midnight wasn't my favorite (shocker, I know). I'm re-reading them all in preparation for LoS, I've been through TID and I'm on book 4 of TMI right now so, maybe once I've finished those I'll have some theories of my own. =)

[@FiMilton]

mom: are you watching your favorite youtuber? me: yup

[@emmmabooks]

[@emmad6760]

I've been waiting for this!!

[@emmmabooks]

hope it was worth the wait ;D

[@MeSimoneI]

I love your theories!! Can't wait to find out what is right!

[@emmmabooks]

neither can i!

[@xoxo-mine3863]

Okay so this is my theory on the whole Emma and Julian. So as explained, parabatai's can not fall in love unless one of them dies, which breaks the bond. I have a big feeling Emma will somehow die sacrificing herself for the blackthorns or Julian making the parabatai bond.

[@taylorjames1690]

This is the best theory video I have ever seen! Emma gets so excited about any Cassie Clare book and it is the best thing ever! I just love this so so much! Emma you are amazing and some of your theories I think are on point! "KIT & TY WILL BE TOGETHER! FIGHT ME!" Was the best thing ever! Love you Emma!

[@peachyedits8954]

Also I am currently rereading all of Cassie's books in anticipation for Lord of shadows.

[@thebookhunter2913]

OH god. I freaking loved this video. The theory about Kit and Ty. I'm 100% agree with you

[@emmmabooks]

I LOVE THEM SO MUCH

[@nune-lt4sp]

A lot of people were confused as to how the Blackthorn blood could have been shed if nobody died so I'm thinking because Cassandra Clare didn't specify if someone really had to die, maybe only a little Blackthorn blood had to be shed- obviously intended by Malcolm. In Lady Midnight, Malcolm sent a note to Julian and when Julian read it out loud the room exploded. In that moment Ty hurt his leg because a bit of glass went in it and it was bleeding. What if that was the Blackthorn blood that had to be shed? It was because of Malcolm that Ty injured his leg and maybe nobody had to actually die. Just a theory- what do you guys think??? Great Video by the way!!!

[@emmmabooks]

that's definitely possible!

[@nune-lt4sp]

emmmabooks Lol thanks :D

[@cidayinnahuat7204]

All of this makes me so excited!!

[@emmmabooks]

i cannot wait!

[@kepukka100]

Watching this now is so interesting and funny but also breaks my heart because of Livvy

BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO SINCE I READ LADY MIDNIGHT

[@irinavazquez]

I love how you defend Clace! They are young, let them be!! I've decided to wait until The Queen of Air and Darkness comes out before I read Lord of Shadows because my soul won't let me live in peace if I get left with another cliffhanger. At least this is my intention, let's see if KZbin and GoodReads allow me to ;)

[@arianamilo269]

you know Emma's passionate about this because she curses😂but that just makes it so much funnier

[@TayliciousReads]

I'm not saying I totally forgot this book is coming out next month but I totally forgot this book is coming out next month XD IM OBSESSED WITH THIS EMOTIONAL ROLLERCOASTER OF THEORIESSSSSS

[@emmmabooks]

OMG GIRL HOW U FORGET

[@ciarajammine2826]

I totally agree with you concerning the Jace and Clary relationship theories. And besides right before Jace proposed to Clary they were both declaring their love for on another so there's no way that Clary just stopped loving Jace.

[@CarolineReadsbooks]

These theories were SO fantastic, I will absolutely be thinking of them when I read Lord of Shadows. I absolutely agree with you about Kit and Ty, and I think that would be the coolest Shadowhunter Chronicles series yet! Ugh! That situation with Julien, Emma, and Mark is my least favorite plot point. I was yelling at the book for so long, EMMA, TELL HIM THE TRUTH!!!! I have no idea whatsoever what's going to happen to Annabelle, though. None!

I think the thing with Blackthorn blood was that blood only needed to be shed, not a body of a Blackthorn was needed, so let's say one of the Blackthorn kids get cut during the fight against Malcom, the blood was shed and might have completed the spell through that!
